"We know a great deal about individual learning and team learning but very little about individual learning within teams. ... In an effort to better understand learning behavior within teams, this study suggests that two main forms of learning-oriented behavior can be enacted by team members: active learning and active teaching. Social information processing is proposed as a mechanism by which team context influences both forms of learning behavior, which, in turn, influence subsequent outcomes such as task performance, social status, job satisfaction, and turnover intentions. Further, to develop a more refined theoretical analysis of this social information processing mechanism, the study draws from motivated information processing theory to suggest key moderating influences by which team context influences individual learning behavior."--From abstract.
