Incoming MBA-students (n = 79) were interviewed regarding teamplaying behavior. Four months later, peers within study groups anonymously evaluated each person´s typical teamplaying behavior, whereas other peers within project groups anonymously evaluated each person´s maximum teamplaying behavior. Both the BDI and the SI predicted typical performance. The SI also predicted maximum performance. Implications and directions for future research are discussed.enIn Copyrightbehavior description interview (BDI)situational interview (SI)performance predictionpredictive validationddc:150What would you do really or ideally? : Constructs underlying the behavior description interview and the situational interview in predicting typical versus maximum performance
