Despite the importance of adaptability for new product development team performance, empirical research that explores the factors promoting their adaptive capacity is limited. This study draws from psychological resource theories to examine how and under which conditions team psychological capital enhances the adaptivity of new product development teams. Data were collected from 198 student teams who took part in a project management simulation. Results showed that the positive relationship between team PsyCap and team adaptivity travels through team creativity and that the level of outcome focus moderates the first stage of this relationship.
