Diversity in one dimension alongside greater similarity in others: Evidence from FP7 cooperative research teams - IPTS Working Papers on Corporate R&D and Innovation No 04/2016
Although diversity between team members may bring benefits of new perspectives, nevertheless, what holds a team together is similarity. We theorise that diversity in one dimension is traded off against diversity in another. Our analysis of collaborative research teams that received FP7 funding presents robust results that diversity in one dimension (diversity of institutional form, diversity in nationality, or inequality in project funding share) is negatively correlated with diversity in the other dimensions.
