Status structures in organizations are ubiquitous yet largely ignored in organizational research. We offer a conceptualization of team status inequality, or the extent to which status positions on a team are dispersed. Status inequality is hypothesized to be negatively related to individual performance and physical health for low-status individuals when uncooperative behavior is high. Trajectories of the outcomes across time are also explored. Analyses using multilevel modeling largely support our hypotheses in a sample of National Basketball Association players across six time points from 2000 to 2005.
组织中的地位结构普遍存在，但在组织研究中却基本被忽视。我们提出了团队地位不平等的概念，即团队中地位职位的分散程度。当合作行为较高时，我们假设地位不平等会对低地位个体的个人表现和身体健康产生负面影响。我们还探讨了这些结果随时间的变化轨迹。在一个 2000 年至 2005 年六个时间点的美国国家篮球协会（NBA）球员样本中，使用多层次模型进行的分析在很大程度上支持了我们的假设。
