Since Lau and Murnighan first introduced the "faultline" concept in 1998, there have been few extended studies related to faultline theory. It is known that faultline theory adds valuable explanations in addition to what previous demographic studies have explored. However, previous research has not been able to fully integrate the cultural characteristics embedded in the workplace environments and their inevitable consequences. In this study, cultural influence is given considerable weight into traditional faultline theory and the impact of cultural faultlines is revealed. Our study indicates that cultural faultlines have negative impact on task conflict and relationship conflict, and also have negative impact on individual outcomes such as individual performance, satisfaction, and intend to remain. Our empirical study reconfirms that cultural faultlines are important indicators in group work and we hope our research findings will be beneficial to organizations concerned with effective and efficient group work.

1998년 Lau와 Murnighan의 faultline 이론이후 이와 연관된 연구가 진행되었으며 이는 기존의 인구 통계학 연구가 밝혀낸 것 외에 많은 유용한 해석을 가능하게 하였다. 그러나 종전의 연구들은 문화적인 요소가 미치는 영향에 대해서는 충분히 검토하지 못하였다. 본 논문에서는 종전의 faultline 이론을 바탕으로 문화적인 faultline을 제시하였고, 또한 문화적인 faultline이 가지는 임팩트에 대해 연구하였다. 본 연구를 통해 문화적인 faultlines은 task conflict와 process conflict에 부정적인 영향을 미치며, 또한 개인 퍼포먼스, 만족도, intend to remain 등에도 부정적인 영향을 미치고, 그룹워크에서도 상당히 중요한 요소임을 확인할 수 있었다.
