Abstract
Self-efficacy theory has driven research on collective efficacy's role in team performance. As such, empirical findings for the role of collective efficacy in motivation and performance mirror that of early self-efficacy research. This parallel between collective efficacy and self-efficacy research extends to the deficiencies exhibited in early self-efficacy research as well. For example, control theory supplies an alternative description regarding the relationship between self-efficacy and motivation that has gone unexamined at the team level of analysis. The current study used an experimental design to assess the generalizability of the individual-level control theory model to collective efficacy and motivation at the team level. Specifically, the negative self-efficacy-to-resource-allocation relationship was found to hold at the group level of analysis.
