Development of the Dynamic Leadership in Counseling Scale–Self-Report

Abstract

ABSTRACT The authors developed the Dynamic Leadership in Counseling Scale–Self-Report (DLCS-SR) and tested for evidence for validity and internal consistency with a sample of 218 participants. They found evidence for a single-factor model of global leadership behaviors among counselors in the current sample as well as evidence for convergent validity and strong internal consistency. Implications for counseling leadership research and practice are discussed in light of the findings.
