A Cross-Cultural, Multi-Dimensional, Nonlinear Examination of Managerial Skills and Effectiveness1
Prior studies in United States organizations have suggested that appropriate development of managerial skills can improve managerial effectiveness, thus saving time and other resources. Little prior cross-cultural research has been done, however, on managerial skills and effectiveness. In addition, models depicting linear combinations of skills have dominated the available research on managerial effectiveness. In contrast, this research investiga…
Mastery Frequency, and Interaction of Managerial Behaviors Relative to Subunit Effectiveness
The relationships among mastery and frequency of managerial behaviors, and subunit effectiveness have frequently been confused. This study investigates both main and interactive effects. The results show that the interaction effect can often be the strongest effect and that increasing frequency without improving mastery can sometimes be detrimental. Furthermore, these results offer a possible explanation as to why research of managerial behavior …
A Study of the Psychometric Properties of the Managerial Skill Scales of the Survey of Management Practices
Much interest in managerial skills has been generated recently. However, most of the questionnaires on managerial skills have focused on frequency and not competency. Thus the purpose of this study is to test the psychometric properties of the managerial skill scales of the Survey of Management Practices, which is purported to measure the competency of individuals on 11 managerial skills. Overall, the results suggest that the managerial skill sca…
Mastery and Frequency of Managerial Behaviors Relative to Sub-unit Effectiveness
This research was undertaken in response to a review which called for a behavioral approach to the study of leadership. The subjects of the study were the managers of sub-units in a hospital. Eleven managerial behaviors were assessed using their subordinates as untrained observers, and behaviorally-anchored questionnaires. Effectiveness was assessed by industrial engineering measures of performance and employee attitude. The results indicate that…
A Study of Four Psychometric Properties of the Jenkins Activity Survey Type a Scale with Suggested Modifications and Validation
Despite much evidence that the Jenkins Activity Survey Type A scale is lacking in essential psychometric properties, it continues to be widely used for measuring coronary-prone behavior in both research and applied settings. Four psychometric properties-internal consistency, construct validity, criterion validity, and generalizability-of the JAS Type A scale were assessed relative to coronary risk measurements in a sample of 227 male and female h…
