School Effectiveness and Leadership.
Dow, I. I.; Oakley, W. F.
Alberta Journal of Educational Research, v38 n1 p33-47 Mar 1992

Data from teacher questionnaires on school climate and effectiveness and measures of principal's leadership in 176 Canadian elementary schools did not support Fiedler's model. Contains 54 references.
