MLQ for Researchers

Bernard M. Bass & Bruce J. Avolio

The Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) offers researchers the most validated and efficient measure of Transformational Leadership, as well as a full range of leadership behaviors. The MLQ is also known as the "MLQ 5X short" or "standard version" of the MLQ. The following instruments are those most frequently used by researchers - please also see our MLQ for Leadership Assessment & Development page for additional instruments.

Since the Web system is an efficient way to collect self and multirater data, Mind Garden has made the system available to researchers for data collection.  Rather than reports, the researcher receives the MLQ raw data in a csv file.
