Abstract

Cognitive style has been regarded as one of the enduring differences in individual cognitive organization and functioning. This study examined the role of thinking styles in students' online participation and teamwork performance. The results suggest that global/local style had predictive power on students' online participation while internal/local style had predictive power on students' team orientations and the level of trust in teamwork. This study implies that it will be useful to integrate cognitive styles as one of the design factors to foster successful online virtual team experience.
