This study compares the responses of 58 adolescent and 58 adult school leaders on the Leadership Traits Inventory. Adolescent leaders rank integrity, good listening, and knowledge or skills highest and rank compassion, consistency, and flexibility lowest. Adult leaders, in comparison, rank sense of purpose, integrity, and knowledge or skills highest and rank flexibility, compassion, and creativity lowest. Rank-order differences between the groups are significant. Adolescent leaders rank good listening and creativity significantly higher than adult leaders. Adults rank sense of purpose, consistency, and flexibility significantly higher than adolescents. Moreover, adolescent school leaders tended to be girls. The results are viewed in terms of leadership qualities, gender, and the developmental differences between adolescents and adults.
本研究比较了58位青少年和58位成年学校领导者在领导特质量表上的反应。青少年领导者将正直、良好的倾听能力以及知识或技能排在最高位,而将同情心、一致性和灵活性排在最低位。相比之下,成年领导者将目标感、正直以及知识或技能排在最高位,而将灵活性、同情心和创造力排在最低位。两组之间的排名顺序差异显著。青少年领导者将良好的倾听能力和创造力排在显著高于成年领导者的位置。成年人将目标感、一致性和灵活性排在显著高于青少年的位置。此外,青少年学校领导者往往是女孩。研究结果从领导品质、性别以及青少年与成年人之间的发展差异等方面进行了探讨。
