This study examined the relationship between person- environment fit, or environmental congruence (Holland, 1985), and satisfaction and supervisors' evaluations. The unique characteristics of the present study include (a) the fact that 24 tank crews of four members each constituted 24 environments, (b) the military conditions, (c) the method for assigning personal environmental congruence scores by comparing the personality type of each crew member with the types of his crew mates, and (d) examination of environmental homogeneity. Findings show positive correlations around .40 (p < .05) between (a) person-environment congruence and (b) environmental homogeneity (the mean of the personal environmental scores), and (a) satisfaction and (b) commanders' personal and crew evaluations. The findings enlighten the potential impact of environmental congruence and of group homogeneity on satisfaction and performance.
