Most of the items are based on the group cohesiveness and social integration scales (see the first two references below). Not sure about item 4: Seashore, 1954, page 37 has a somewhat similar question: "if you had a chance to do the same work for the same pay, in another group, how would you feel about moving?" All the best

Subject: [OB-LIST] Looking for source of cohesion scale
Can anyone help me find the source for this scale of group cohesion?
1. The members of our group got along together very well.
2. Our group was united in trying to reach its goals for performance.
3. Members of our group were always ready to cooperate and help each other.
4. I would be willing to work with these people again
5. Everyone's input was incorporated into most important group decisions.
Thank you,
Judith
