摘要：
The aim of this study was to test the psychometric properties of a German adaption of the Ethical Leadership at Work Questionnaire by Kalshoven, Den Hartog, and De Hoogh (2011). The ELW-D shows an improvement compared with previous instruments for assessing ethical leadership due to the multidimensional measurement of ethical leadership behaviors. Based on one sample (N-1 = 550), the seven-factor structure was confirmed by conducting a confirmatory factor analysis. There was convergent validity between scales of ethical leadership and related leadership styles. Predominantly unrelated associations between ELW-D scales and followers' age and leaders' gender demonstrated discriminant validity. Significant relationships between scales of ethical leadership and followers' job satisfaction, affective commitment (positive correlations), and illegitimate tasks (negative correlations) were interpreted as support for ELW-D criterion-related validity (N-2 = 368). The German adaption of the ELW is a useful alternative to previous ethical leadership behavior measurement tools in Germany.
