Abstract
The production of scientific knowledge has evolved from a process of inquiry largely based on the activities of individual scientists to one grounded in the collaborative efforts of specialized research teams. This shift brings to light a new question: how the composition of scientific teams affects their production of knowledge. This study employs data from 1,415 experiments conducted at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NHMFL) between 2005 and 2008 to identify and select a sample of 89 teams and examine whether team diversity and network characteristics affect productivity. The study examines how the diversity of science teams along several variables affects overall team productivity. Results indicate several diversity measures associated with network position and team productivity. Teams with mixed institutional associations were more central to the overall network compared with teams that primarily comprised NHMFL's own scientists. Team cohesion was positively related to productivity. The study indicates that high productivity in teams is associated with high disciplinary diversity and low seniority diversity of team membership. Finally, an increase in the share of senior members negatively affects productivity, and teams with members in central structural positions perform better than other teams.

evolved from a process of inquiry largely based on the activities of individual scientists to one grounded in the collaborative efforts of specialized research teams. This shift brings to light a new question: how the composition of scientific teams affects their production of knowledge. This study employs data from 1,415 experiments conducted at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NHMFL) between 2005 and 2008 to identify and select a sample of 89 teams and examine whether team diversity and network characteristics affect productivity. The study examines how the diversity of science teams along several variables affects overall team productivity. Results indicate several diversity measures associated with network position and team productivity. Teams with mixed institutional associations were more central to the overall network compared with teams that primarily comprised NHMFL's own scientists. Team cohesion was positively related to productivity. The study indicates that high productivity in teams is associated with high disciplinary diversity and low seniority diversity of team membership. Finally, an increase in the share of senior members negatively affects productivity, and teams with members in central structural positions perform better than other teams.</p></abstract></abstractGroup></contentMeta></header></component></istex:document></istex:metadataXml><mods version="3.6"><titleInfo lang="en"><title>Composition of scientific teams and publication productivity at a national science lab</title></titleInfo><titleInfo type="alternative" contentType="CDATA" lang="en"><title>Composition of scientific teams and publication productivity at a national science lab</title></titleInfo><name type="personal"><namePart type="given">Besiki</namePart><namePart type="family">Stvilia</namePart><affiliation>College of Communication and Information, Florida State University, Tallahassee, FL 32306‐2100</affiliation><affiliation>E-mail: bstvilia@fsu.edu</affiliation><role><roleTerm type="text">author</roleTerm></role></name><name type="personal"><namePart type="given">Charles C.</namePart><namePart type="family">Hinnant</namePart><affiliation>College of Communication and Information, Florida State University, Tallahassee, FL 32306‐2100</affiliation><affiliation>E-mail: chinnant@fsu.edu</affiliation><role><roleTerm type="text">author</roleTerm></role></name><name type="personal"><namePart type="given">Katy</namePart><namePart type="family">Schindler</namePart><affiliation>Department of Sociology, Florida State University, Tallahassee, FL 32306‐2100</affiliation><affiliation>E-mail: ks08h@fsu.edu</affiliation><role><roleTerm type="text">author</roleTerm></role></name><name type="personal"><namePart type="given">Adam</namePart><namePart type="family">Worrall</namePart><affiliation>College of Communication and Information, Florida State University, Tallahassee, FL 32306‐2100</affiliation><affiliation>E-mail: apw06@fsu.edu</affiliation><role><roleTerm type="text">author</roleTerm></role></name><name type="personal"><namePart type="given">Gary</namePart><namePart type="family">Burnett</namePart><affiliation>College of Communication and Information, Florida State University, Tallahassee, FL 32306‐2100</affiliation><affiliation>E-mail: gburnett@fsu.edu</affiliation><role><roleTerm type="text">author</roleTerm></role></name><name type="personal"><namePart type="given">Kathleen</namePart><namePart type="family">Burnett</namePart><affiliation>College of Communication and Information, Florida State University, Tallahassee, FL 32306‐2100</affiliation><affiliation>E-mail: kburnett@fsu.edu</affiliation><role><roleTerm type="text">author</roleTerm></role></name><name type="personal"><namePart type="given">Michelle M.</namePart><namePart type="family">Kazmer</namePart><affiliation>College of Communication and Information, Florida State University, Tallahassee, FL 32306‐2100</affiliation><affiliation>E-mail: mkazmer@fsu.edu</affiliation><role><roleTerm type="text">author</roleTerm></role></name><name type="personal"><namePart type="given">Paul F.</namePart><namePart type="family">Marty</namePart><affiliation>College of Communication and Information, Florida State University, Tallahassee, FL 32306‐2100</affiliation><affiliation>E-mail: pmarty@fsu.edu</affiliation><role><roleTerm type="text">author</roleTerm></role></name><typeOfResource>text</typeOfResource><genre type="article" displayLabel="article"></genre><originInfo><publisher>Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company</publisher><place><placeTerm type="text">Hoboken</placeTerm></place><dateIssued encoding="w3cdtf">2011-02</dateIssued><dateCaptured encoding="w3cdtf">2010-07-04</dateCaptured><dateValid encoding="w3cdtf">2010-10-11</dateValid><copyrightDate encoding="w3cdtf">2011</copyrightDate></originInfo><language><languageTerm type="code" authority="rfc3066">en</languageTerm><languageTerm type="code" authority="iso639-2b">eng</languageTerm></language><physicalDescription><internetMediaType>text/html</internetMediaType><extent unit="figures">2</extent><extent unit="tables">4</extent><extent unit="references">77</extent></physicalDescription><abstract lang="en">The production of scientific knowledge has evolved from a process of inquiry largely based on the activities of individual scientists to one grounded in the collaborative efforts of specialized research teams.
