Multiteam digital creativity (MTDC) is a new domain of creativity study that fits the new developments of the digital era, thus scholars have called for exploring MTDC in the fine-graining phase. This paper responds to this call, and adopts two studies and cross-validation analysis to explore the theoretical framework of the impact factors of MTDC in the transition phase. Study 1 adopts the qualitative analysis method of rooted theory to explore a more comprehensive impact factor and to maximize the new theory's saturation. Study 2 adopts the CL-WG DEMATEL method, one analysis method of group decision-making and optimized concept lattice, which could cross-validation analyze the results of Study 1 and further determine the importance of the factors. The results of the studies indicate that the influencing factors of MTDC are multilevel, and the factors such as the organizational digital climate, team psychological empowerment, individual digital cognition and emotion, and leadership competence have greater impacts on MTDC. This indicates that the transition phase has a unique internal mechanism. This paper constructs a theoretical framework of factors influencing MTDC in the transition phase and provides new theoretical and practical references for how organizations could fully stimulate MTDC in the digital era. In addition, the cross-validated analytical method further enriches the study tools in the domain of organizational behavior.
多团队数字创造力（MTDC）是创造力研究的一个新领域，契合数字时代的新发展，因此学者们呼吁在细化阶段对MTDC进行探索。本文响应这一呼吁，采用两项研究及交叉验证分析来探究转型阶段MTDC影响因素的理论框架。研究1采用扎根理论的定性分析方法来探索更全面的影响因素，并使新理论达到最大程度的饱和。研究2采用CL-WG DEMATEL方法，这是一种群体决策和优化概念格的分析方法，能够对研究1的结果进行交叉验证分析，并进一步确定各因素的重要性。研究结果表明，MTDC的影响因素是多层次的，组织数字氛围、团队心理赋能、个体数字认知与情感以及领导能力等因素对MTDC有更大影响。这表明转型阶段具有独特的内在机制。本文构建了转型阶段MTDC影响因素的理论框架，为组织在数字时代如何充分激发MTDC提供了新的理论和实践参考。此外，交叉验证分析方法进一步丰富了组织行为领域的研究工具。
