TABLE 8-4: HIERARCHICAL REGRESSION MODEL JOB SATISFACTION............................................................................................................
Table 8.4 shows that the interaction terms with both dummy variables for organization level did not
explain significant extra variance (step 3). Hence, one may conclude that for this sample,
organizational level did not serve as a general moderator variable for the relationship between
VWUDWHJLF DQG WUDQVIRUPDWLRQDO OHDGHUVKLS DQG VXERUGLQDWH¶ MREVDWLVIDFWLRQBut, it could be that
organizational level has a moderating role for several sub-dimensions. In order to test for this, a
similar regression procedure was conducted for the four strategic and five transformational leadership
variables separately.
Therefrom, only Supportive leadership showed significant results. Table 8.5 shows the extra variance
in job satisfaction explained by means of the dummy variables, Orglevel1 (distinguishing top-level
managers from lower and middle managers and Orglevel2, distinguishing middle managers from top-
level and lower-level managers).
