Research on work group diversity has more or less neglected the possibility
that reactions to diversity may be informed by individuals' beliefs
about the value of diversity (vs. homogeneity) for their work group.
We studied the role of such diversity beliefs as a moderator of the
relationship between work group diversity and individuals' identification
with the work group across 2 studies. Study 1 was a cross-sectional
survey that focused on gender diversity and gender diversity beliefs.
Study 2 was a laboratory experiment in which work group diversity
and diversity beliefs were manipulated. Results of both studies support
the prediction that work group diversity and group identification
are more positively related the more individuals believe in the value
of diversity., (C) 2007 Educational Publishing Foundation
