TZINER, Aharon  e  SHKOLER, Or. Leadership styles and work attitudes: does age moderate their relationship?. Rev. psicol. trab. organ. [online]. 2018, vol.34, n.3, pp.195-201. ISSN 2174-0534.  https://dx.doi.org/10.5093/jwop2018a21.

The current study was conducted among employees in several organizations (N = 260). We investigated the relationships between the two leadership styles (the predictors) and several individual and organizational work outcomes among two age categories. For the young-to-adults age group, both transformational and transactional leadership associated positively with organizational justice; organizational justice associated positively with work commitment and work motivation; both transformational and transactional leadership associated positively with work motivation; and only transformational leadership associated positively with work commitment. Transactional leadership and work commitment were not significantly correlated. For the older group, transformational leadership associated positively with organizational justice; however, transactional leadership linked to it negatively. Organizational justice associated positively only with work commitment. Organizational justice and work motivation were not significantly related. Important implications are discussed.
