This article examines how Korean leaders in a hierarchical society would trigger employees’ creativity and voice behavior through an indigenous leadership style: Korean leadership style (KLS). KLS exhibits heavily relationship-oriented behaviors, including attending to superiors’ needs and requests, building a positive reputation and trust of peers, and embracing and sheltering subordinates. Jeong, a shared group affect ingrained in Korean society, and woori, a shared feeling of belongingness dedifferentiating individuals constituting the collective, provide a fertile ground for this unique leadership style. Building upon the literature on group affect and collective energy, we explore how the affective mechanism mediates the positive relationships between KLS and employees’ creativity and voice behaviors. The findings from the empirical study of 340 leader–follower paired data points confirm the positive relationships between relationship-oriented Korean leader behaviors and employees’ creativity and voice behavior and that, for creativity, the link is partially mediated by positive affect with high energy.

International Measurement

The International Measurement System (IMS) uses a computerized velocity prediction program (VPP) to calculate the performance of a meas­ured hull and rig in winds from six to twenty knots, at any sailing angle. A regatta is scored by comparing a yacht's performance with pre­dictions of the VPP. The winner is the yacht whose performance, relative to its VPP predic­tions, is the best, compared to all other yachts in its class or division. This paper discusses different methods of malc­ing the comparison and accounting for various factors in the race such as wind shifts and cur­rent on the course. Decisions made by race man­agers and/or developers of scoring programs can significantly impact results. Illustrative examples show the effects that these decisions can have. In 1994 the number of data points available for use in scoring yachts in custom courses doubled. Alternative ways of using these data are illus­trated by application to a sample regatta.

Executive Officers

On the basis of social learning theory, we explored the mechanism through which chief executive officers' use of the servant leadership style affects middle managers' voice behavior. We analyzed data obtained from a sample of managers of firms in the energy industry in China. We found that chief executive officers' servant leadership had a positive influence on organizational collective promotion focus through its effects on top management team servant leadership. Further, organizational collective promotion focus was positively correlated with middle managers' voice behavior through the mediator of middle managers' promotion focus. Finally, a promotion focus motivated middle managers to speak out more often in their organizations. Theoretical and managerial implications are discussed.

Abstract BACKGROUND Increased intracranial pressure (ICP) causes secondary damage in traumatic brain injury (TBI), and intracranial hemorrhage (ICH). Current methods of ICP monitoring require surgery and carry risks of complications. OBJECTIVE To validate a new instrument for noninvasive ICP measurement by comparing values obtained from noninvasive measurements to those from commercial implantable devices through this pilot study. METHODS The ophthalmic artery (OA) served as a natural ICP sensor. ICP measurements obtained using noninvasive, self-calibrating device utilizing Doppler ultrasound to evaluate OA flow were compared to standard implantable ICP measurement probes. RESULTS A total of 78 simultaneous, paired, invasive, and noninvasive ICP measurements were obtained in 11 ICU patients over a 17-mo period with the diagnosis of TBI, SAH, or ICH. A total of 24 paired data points were initially excluded because of questions about data independence. Analysis of variance was performed first on the 54 remaining data points and then on the entire set of 78 data points. There was no difference between the 2 groups nor was there any correlation between type of sensor and the patient (F[10, 43] = 1.516, P = .167), or the accuracy and precision of noninvasive ICP measurements (F[1, 43] = 0.511, P = .479). Accuracy was [−1.130; 0.539] mm Hg (CL = 95%). Patient-specific calibration was not needed. Standard deviation (precision) was [1.632; 2.396] mm Hg (CL = 95%). No adverse events were encountered. CONCLUSION This pilot study revealed no significant differences between invasive and noninvasive ICP measurements (P < .05), suggesting that noninvasive ICP measurements obtained by this method are comparable and reliable.

The Relationship

As a bottom-up leadership style, humble leadership has attracted increasing attention from scholars in recent years. But its effectiveness and mechanism still lack rigorous empirical study. In this study, we investigate the mechanism and boundary condition by which humble leader behavior exerts influence on followers’ turnover intention. Two-wave data collected from 249 scientific and technological personnel in China supported our hypothesized model. We found that humble leader behavior is significantly negatively related to follower turnover intention. The relationship is further partially mediated by organizational identification, and moderated by leader expertise. Implications for theory, practice and future research are discussed.

The authors examine the post-listing performance of new issues on the JSE. On the basis of an empirical study conducted over the 1975-1986 period, evidence is presented indicating that abnormal returns do occur during the post-listing period. The existence of hot and cold issue periods are also found to be evident on the JSE and the performance in the aftermarket is found to differ substantially in these periods. In hot issue periods abnormal returns are found in almost the entire 12-month period subsequent to listing, with excess returns reaching as much as 7% per month during the subsequent year. The results for cold issue periods by contrast reveal abnormal returns only up to the first three months after issue, whereafter substantially negative returns occur in several subsequent months. Significant positive relationships were also evident between the opening premia and some important behavioural characteristics in the aftermarket, namely, abnormal returns one year after issue and volumes traded in the aftermarket.

Abstract We have evaluated Roche Diagnostics' RIA-CEA and Abbott Diagnostics' EIA-CEA methods for precision, normal reference interval, concordance, and correlation of malignant disease with increase in carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in plasma. In examining concordance, we used data on 138 patients with primary carcinomas of the breast, colon, lung, or pancreas, each further classified by extent of dissemination. We find the two methods to be comparably precise. The respective upper reference limits of normal for the Roche and Abbott methods were determined to be 5.0 micrograms/L and 4.6 micrograms/L. The regression equation for a log transformation of the 177 data points is y = 0.966x + 0.03, where x = Roche and y = Abbott, with a correlation coefficient of 0.948. According to the criteria we used, the concordance was 78.7%. The largest discordance was observed in widely disseminated disease states and in cancers of the colon and pancreas. Paired data analysis of discordance indicated greater increases in apparent CEA by the Abbott method in most colon cancers with liver involvement; six of the eight discordant pancreatic cancers had higher Roche-CEA values. CEA heterogeneity and the role of the liver in CEA metabolism appear to contribute to the observed differences. We show why the two methods should not be used interchangeably, and that baseline values for CEA must be established for each method.
