Path analysis was used to develop a structural model of the head nurse's leadership influence in a large metropolitan hospital. The study indicates that the head nurse's consideration behavior had an inverse effect on her staff member's job related tension but also had an inverse effect on the employee's job performance. Her initiating structure behavior had a positive effect on employee terminations particularly in the structured task situations. The role of structural models in leadership research is discussed.
路径分析被用于构建一家大型都市医院中护士长领导影响力的结构模型。研究表明，护士长的关怀行为对其下属员工的工作紧张感有反向影响，但对员工的工作绩效也有反向影响。她的定规行为对员工离职率有正向影响，尤其是在结构化任务情境中。文中还讨论了结构模型在领导力研究中的作用。
