Abstract

Midlevel administrators working at colleges and universities in the United States rated the degree to which they perceived their supervisor to exhibit syn-ergistic supervisory behaviors. They also responded to questions regarding their core self-evaluation and commitment to their supervisors. The results suggest a significant positive correlation exists between synergistic supervision and core self-evaluation and between synergistic supervision and supervisor-related commitment. The impact of demographic characteristics on these variables was also examined.
