We developed and tested a model in which transformational leadership affects sports performance indirectly, through the mediating effects of intrinsic motivation. During the season. 168 university athletes provided data on their perceptions of their coach’s transformational leadership and their own intrinsic motivation. At the end of the season, their coaches assessed the performance of the ath...

Basque settlement increased in the western states of US decades ago, particularly California, Idaho, and Nevada. Alongside this migration phenomenon, Studies programs have been emerging at University Nevada, Reno (UNR), Boise State (BSU), California University, Bakersfield (CSUB), humanities, including history, anthropology, linguistics, literature. The impact pandemic e-Diasporic communities a...

Categorial Grammar (CG, Ajdukiewicz 1935; Bar-Hillel 1953) is one of the oldest lexicalized grammar formalisms, in which all grammatical constituents are distinguished by a syntactic type identifying them as either a function from arguments of one type to results of another, or as an argument. Such types, or categories, are transparently related to to the semantic type of the linguistic express...

This study was a meta-analysis of the relationship between personality and ratings of transformational and transactional leadership behaviors. Using the 5-factor model of personality as an organizing framework, the authors accumulated 384 correlations from 26 independent studies.

Followers' identification with the leader and the organizational unit, dependence on the leader, and empowerment by the leader are often attributed to transformational leadership in organizations. However, these hypothesized outcomes have received very little attention in empirical studies. Using a sample of 888 bank employees working under 76 branch manages, the authors tested the relationship...

Associate Editor: Shelly Dionne Based on construal level theory and trait activation theory, we examined the effect of consideration of future consequences (CFC) on transformational leadership behavior and leadership effectiveness, as well as the potential moderating effects of perceived dynamic work environment in the relationship.

Various restrictions on transformational grammars have been investigated in order to reduce their generative power from recursively enumerable languages to recursive languages. It will be shown that any restriction on transformational grammars defining a recursively enumerable subset of the set of all transformational grammars, is either too weak (in the sense that there does not exist a genera...
