Critical to this stream of work has been the development of measures used to assess the frequency of upward influence tactics. This article reexamines a taxonomy and instrumentation originally presented by Kipnis et al. and modified by Schriesheim and Hinkin. The authors of this article assessed the factor structure, conv…
