Lider-üye etkileşim teorisi ile ilgili erken dönem çalışmalarının çoğunda lider ile üyeler arasındaki ilişkiler tek boyutlu bir yaklaşımla ele alınmıştır. Oysa ki son zamanlarda, rol teorisi ve sosyal değişim teorisinin de açıkça ortaya koyduğu gibi lider-üye etkileşiminin çok boyutlu bir nitelik taşıdığı düşüncesi önem kazanmaya başlamıştır. Bu düşünce, lider-üye etkileşiminin çok boyutlu bir yapıya sahip olduğunu ortaya koyan teorik ve ampirik çalışmalarla desteklenmiştir. Bu çalışmada, lider-üye etkileşimi çok boyutlu bir yaklaşım çerçevesinde ele alınarak, Liden ve Maslyn tarafından geliştirilen etki, bağlılık, katkı ve profesyonel saygı boyutlarını içeren lider-üye etkileşim ölçeğinin psikometrik özellikleri Türkiye’de bir tıp fakültesi örnekleminde incelenmiştir. Örneklemden elde edilen verilere doğrulayıcı faktör analizi uygulanmıştır. Elde edilen uyum iyiliği istatistikleri, lider-üye etkileşim modelinin etki, katkı ve profesyonel saygı olmak üzere üç boyuta sahip olduğunu ortaya koymuştur.

In most of the initial studies of leader-member exchange theory the relationship between leader and members is considered unidimensionally. However, as it has been put forward by the recent studies in role theory and social exchange theory, the leader-member exchange is thought to be multidimensional. This notion has been supported by both theoretical and empirical studies. In this study, by analyzing leader-member exchange in a multidimensional framework we investigate psychometric characteristics of leader-member exchange scale developed by Liden and Maslyn including effect, loyalty, contribution, and professional respect dimensions in a medical school in Turkey. We apply confirmatory factor analysis to sample data. The goodness of fit statistics indicates that leader-member exchange model has four dimensions including effect, contribution and professional respect.
