  • As the relationship between the servant leader and the follower matures overtime, we would expect to see the servant leader focus less on the professional elements of the relationship (i.e. assisting with task-related behavior) and focus more on the personal capacity building elements of the relationship (i.e. developing the follower into a servant leader in their own rights).

  • Liden and Maslyn's LMX-MDM and Graen and Uhl-Bien's LMX-7 capture reciprocity indirectly by asking what each party of the dyad brings to the relationship, without specifically asking respondents if the reciprocity motivated a dyadic member's contribution to the relationship.

    “Liden and Maslyn ' s (1998) leader-member exchange multidimensional measure (LMXMDM) and Graen and Uhl-Bien ' s (1995) LMX-7 capture reciprocity indirectly by asking what each party of the dyad brings to the relationship, without specifically asking respondents if the reciprocity motivated a dyadic member ' s contribution to the relationship.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
