Abstract

The propositions are tested that (a) the more unstructured the task, the more positive the relationships between leader initiating structure and subordinate job satisfaction and performance, and (b) the more unstructured the task, the less positive the relationship between leader consideration and subordinate job satisfaction and performance. The correlations do not support the first proposition.
