Differential Encoding of the Two Fundamental Ethical Standards
This study explored the encoding salience of the two fundamental ethical standards of extrinsic utility and intrinsic duty.

The present sample consisted of 93 university students…

Two ratings were obtained, a rating of an ideal leader and a rating of the real immediate superior. For ratings of the real leader, the mean ratings on the transformational factors were more highly correlated than those on the transactional factors with perceived leader's effectiveness and job satisfaction.
