Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the appraisal formation processes of collective efficacy fo-cusing on relay task order. We considered that the processes could be explained from the viewpoint of instrumentality, which is a constituent element of the Collective Effort Model (Karau & Williams, 1993, 2001). Participants were 94 undergraduatestudents (male = 25, female = 69) who were assigned to either the first or the fourth relay team position within quads. They were asked to compete with virtual oppo-nents by typing randomly generated three-digit numbers as quickly and as accurately as possible. Con-sequently, it was revealed that only the participants in the fourth position appraised collective efficacy based on the perception of how their performance would lead the team to win the competition. Addition-ally, collective efficacy was positively associated with the individual effort that they made during their turn. In contrast, the participants in the first position appraised collective efficacy based on past experi-ence for the experimental task only. Instrumentality could be interpreted to have played a significant role in leading to the results.
