Authenticity and Theories of Administrative Behavior

Abstract

The research reported is an attempt at construct validation of a proposed measure of administrator authenticity, Seeman's scale of ambivalence toward leadership ideology. Seeman has implied that leaders who are more ambivalent would be less susceptible to reality distortion. Using Rokeach's dogmatism scale as an indicator of susceptibility to reality distortion, the research reported here failed to support this assumption. This may reflect some doubt on the construct validity of the only existing authenticity index in the current research literature.
