Positive Effect

In this research, the relationship between perceived organizational support (POS) and leader- member exchange (LMX) with contextual performance is analyzed on the basis of social exchange theory and the norm of reciprocity. To achieve this, data was collected from 314 employees working in twenty-five bank branches in Ankara, Turkey. According to the correlation analysis, it has been found statistically significant that POS and LMX have positive relationships with contextual performance. Besides, affect, loyalty, contribution and professional respect dimensions of LMX have positive and significant relationships in terms of statistics with contextual performance. According to multiple regression analysis, the positive effect of POS on contextual performance has been found statistically significant. Similarly, the positive effect of LMX on contextual performance has been found statistically significant, too. Again, it has been identified that the positive effects of affect, loyalty, contribution and professional respect dimensions of LMX on contextual performance are statistically significant.

The Relationship

We explored the relationship between positive leaders’ implicit followership theory (LIFT) and employees’ career success using cognitive information processing theory and social exchange theory. Data were obtained from 296 employees and their immediate superiors at 12 large Chinese enterprises. Results showed that positive LIFT had a significantly positive effect on employees’ career success, that this positive relationship was partially mediated by leader–member exchange and perceived organizational support, and that leaders’ liking for their followers moderated the relationship between positive LIFT and leader–member exchange/perceived organizational support. We have not only extended the application of cognitive theory in leadership research, but also enriched the content of social exchange theory.

The Relationship

We examined the relationship among team networks, leader-member exchange (LMX), and team identification in the workplace. Social network theory, social exchange theory, and social identity theory served as references for our theoretical propositions and analyses. We collected data from a sample of 223 teams of military personnel, serving in the artillery in West China. We found that the team networks had a significant effect on team identification. Further, the variance and the mean for LMX in teams interacted in influencing team identification (β =-.893, p < .01). Our findings indicated that creating productive networks in teams would be useful to enhance team identification, the effect of which may be carried on through to building exchange relationships between leader and follower.

Using Data

Although research has made significant gains in understanding the constitutive nature of conversation in the process of organizing, its predictive effects on organizational outcomes are still uncertain. To contribute in this direction, based on social exchange theory and leader-member exchange (LMX) research, this study examined the predictive effects of leader-member conversational quality (LMCQ) on employee organizational commitment (OC), and the potential interaction effects of LMCQ with LMX quality. Using data from an online survey, this study found that above and beyond communication frequency and other control variables, LMCQ is significantly associated with employee OC. More interestingly, the effects of LMCQ vary based on the level of LMX quality. These findings have significant implications at both theoretical and practical levels.

Introduction The Leader–Member Exchange (LMX) theory, based on the social exchange theory, relates to positive psychological states among nurses. However, the influence of various LMX qualities coexisting within a team on nurses or nurse managers is still uncleared. Objective This study examines the relationship of nurses and nurse managers’ psychological states with the average LMX and LMX dispersion among nurses in their units. Methods The study was conducted at two university hospitals in March 2017 using anonymous questionnaires. Nurses completed the LMX-7 scale and the subscales of job satisfaction, achievement, and growth from the Checklist on Commitments Related to Work. Nurse managers completed the subscales of management satisfaction, effectiveness, and extracting extra effort from the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire. Both nurses and managers completed the Intention to Continue Working scale. The nurses’ data were analyzed using a multilevel analysis to clarify associations between nurses’ psychological states and LMX, average LMX, and LMX dispersion. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis tested to test the correlations of the psychological states of nurse managers with average LMX and LMX dispersion. Results Data from 586 nurses and 28 managers were analyzed. The LMX and average LMX of nurses were positively related to positive psychological states. Nurse managers displayed significant associations between high LMX dispersion and good psychological states. When average LMX was low, management effectiveness increased as LMX dispersion increased; when average LMX was high, management effectiveness was almost constant. Conclusion The unit’s LMX characteristics appear to be related to the psychological states of both nurses and nurse managers. Increasing the LMX of each nurse may lead to positive psychological states for not only that nurse but all nurses in the unit. When LMX with subordinates is low, increasing LMX with a portion of nurse managers should be a priority to improve their psychological states.

Abstract— The purpose of this research is to investigate the impact of relational exchange and individual differences on the employee voice. In the light of social exchange theory, the present study proposed the relationship between Leader-member quality relationships and employee voice. This study explains ‘how’ this relationship establishes and ‘why’ this relationship keeps carrying on. It has been proposed that perception of organizational support mediates the association between leader-member quality relationships and employees’ promotive and prohibitive voice behaviors. Moreover, personality trait is another important factor which is inseparable from developing perceptions and behaviors. The perceptions about organizational support and the strength of raising voice can be highly predictable by individual’s personality traits. So, this study has undertaken core self-evaluation as personality trait and explores people having different core self-evaluation (CSE) shows different strengths for promotive and prohibitive voicing based on leader-member quality relationships (LMQR) and perceived organizational support (POS).    Index Terms-- Leader-member relationship, perceived organizational support, employee voice, core self-evaluation and social exchange theory
