Due to the open nature of this approach, there is a lack of formal structure and thus a need for an integration mechanism to motivate the participants to collaborate productively. This study examines such constructs as team vision, commitment, and self-efficacy, which might drive cross-field teammates to contribute their efforts to innovation projects. The aim is to explore how the participants' varied abilities can be integrated in open innovation student teams. A questionnaire survey of 159 respondents was conducted using purposive sampling focusing on six major open innovation contests in Taiwan. The results show that team vision, commitment, and self-efficacy only partially mediate the integration mechanism that can be used to integrate the team members' varied abilities in order to achieve more innovative outcomes.
