Abstract
Seventy-five police officers completed a questionnaire which included indices of their immediate superior's consideration and initiating structure behaviors. Initiating structure was found to significantly positively correlate with faith in people, experienced meaningfulness of work, experienced responsibility for work, general job satisfaction, job involvement, internal work motivation, and organizational commitment. Initiating structure was found to significantly negatively correlate with defensive posture. Consideration correlated significantly positively with only organizational commitment. Implications of the results for police administration and future research are discussed.
