description Despite the burgeoning number of studies on team diversity, research regarding deeplevel diversity remains sparse. This dissertation delves into the exploration of construal level diversity, a crucial deep-level team characteristic. Since this is a novel form of diversity, in Essay 1, I investigated how trait construal level diversity influences team effectiveness, manifested in team performance, creativity, and satisfaction. In Essay 2, I studied whether considering construal level diversity could reconcile inconsistency in findings related to functional diversity in teams. Considering the dynamic nature of state construal level, in Essay 3, I discussed how state construal level diversity in teams changes over time. I tested my hypotheses in two 6-wave longitudinal field survey studies. Study 1 included 158 student teams during 6 weeks, and Study 2 included 117 work teams over 5 months. I discussed theoretical and practical implications at the end of each essay.
