A lifespan perspective on organizational antecedents of transformational leadership","authors":"Susanne Tafvelin, Hanna Irehill, Robert Lundmark","doi":"10.1080/19012276.2023.2277116","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/19012276.2023.2277116","url":null,"abstract":"While the role of the organizational context in enabling leadership behaviours has attracted increasing research attention, the role of leaders’ age in this dynamic has been overlooked. Using transformational leadership theory (Bass, 1985) and Oc’s framework of context (2018), we examine how aspects of the task, social, physical, and temporal context shape leadership behaviour from a lifespan perspective. A random sample of young leaders and their older colleagues was surveyed (n = 847). Multiple group structural equation modelling was used to test the study hypotheses. Results indicated that the task context, in terms of role clarity, was a stronger predictor of transformational leadership among young leaders than it was among their older colleagues. Social, physical, and temporal contexts did not differ in their effect on the leaders’ ability to exhibit transformational leadership. Our findings suggest that organizations can facilitate young leaders’ role clarity to support their development of constructive (i.e. transformational) leadership behaviours. In addition, our study demonstrates that leadership research benefits from a lifespan perspective to facilitate a better understanding of how leaders’ age influences the emergence of leadership behaviour.","PeriodicalId":51815,"journal":{"name":"Nordic Psychology","volume":"39 23","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134953771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Corroborating previous research findings from other religious populations, our findings strongly supported the idea that attachment security (i.e. positive, non-defensive representations of self and others) facilitates the intergenerational transmission of religion from parents to offspring (the socialized correspondence hypothesis) in families within the Læstadian revival movement. Extending previous research, attachment security was also linked to the adoption and transmission of the congregation’s religious standards and to perceived religious support from the congregation. Results pertaining to religion-as-compensation for attachment-related insecurity (the compensation hypothesis) were generally mixed, perhaps due to particularities of Læstadian faith.","PeriodicalId":51815,"journal":{"name":"Nordic Psychology","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136060057","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since the etiological model of mental illness was superseded by the symptom model around 1980, new diagnoses have continuously been added to the reigning manuals of psychopathology, most recently with DSM-5 and ICD-11. This article unfolds some of the criticism that has recently been directed at diagnostic psychiatry with a focus on two quite different lines of critical thought: One represented by a neuroscientific approach known as RDoC, which argues that psychiatry must move beyond symptoms and find the causes of mental illness in the brain (Insel et al., Citation2010), and another represented by a contextual approach known as PTMF, which argues that mental distress is by and large understandable in light of what happens to people (Boyle & Johnstone, Citation2020). These oppositional perspectives stand out as prototypical, and each contain valuable insights but also limitations. The article ends by arguing that the limitations can be overcome if the perspectives are united by a hybrid theory stating that mental illness is always a property of a relation between a person and an environment. Two such theories are introduced and discussed (Gannik, Citation2002; Wakefield, Citation1992).Keywords: psychiatric diagnosesmental illnesspathologizationsymptomsneurosciencecontext Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author.Notes1 There are of course other alternative conceptualizations, which I cannot address in detail here, e.g., HiTOP (Kotov et al., Citation2017).2 The following sections rework material from Brinkmann (Citation2016b).Additional informationFundingDanmarks Frie Forskningsfond","PeriodicalId":51815,"journal":{"name":"Nordic Psychology","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134970236","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
