Empirical research suggests that the positive relationship between team decision comprehensiveness - how team members systematically gather quantities of information and how extensively they consider and analyze these - and team performance is nuanced. However, there has been scant research on the influence of more proximate cognitive contextual factors, such as shared perceptions, on the comprehensiveness-performance relationship. In this study of 56 teams, we examine how perceived socio-cultural similarity - the extent to which team members view themselves as having few surface-level, demographic differences - moderates the relationship between team decision comprehensiveness and team performance. Our findings suggest that decision comprehensiveness positively contributes to team performance only when perceived socio-cultural similarity among team members is low.
