The Multidimensional Existential Meaning Scale: A tripartite approach to measuring meaning in life (2017, methodology): “This final scale, listed in the Appendix 1, is used in all subsequent analyses in this paper. out that when predictors in a model are correlated, the betas that emerge in regression analyses could paint a distorted picture of the relative importance of the predictors (Tonidandel & LeBreton, 2011).”
Do Ethical, Authentic, and Servant Leadership Explain Variance Above and Beyond Transformational Leadership? A Meta-Analysis (2018, methodology): “…of the emerging leadership forms are presented, we select nine correlates shared across the analyses and investigate the relative weights (cf. Tonidandel & LeBreton, 2011) of the relationships between the new leadership forms and the correlates versus transformational leadership and the…”
Leadership, creativity and innovation: a meta-analytic review (2020, background): “…approach that takes into account a variable’s contribution to an outcome by itself and in combination with other predictor variables (see Johnson, 2000; Johnson & LeBreton, 2004; LeBreton & Tonidandel, 2008; Tonidandel & LeBreton, 2011, for a detailed discussion of relative weight analysis).”
Risk perceptions of COVID-19 around the world (2020, background): “Although results from multiple regression models are informative on their own, scholars now frequently recommend to supplement regression analyses with additional indicators of variable importance (Darlington 1968; Tonidandel and LeBreton 2011).”
Understanding the Results of Multiple Linear Regression (2013, neutral): “…the reader to other work, both recent and historical in nature (e.g., Budescu, 1993; Darlington, 1968; Johnson, 2000; Johnson & LeBreton, 2004; Kraha, Turner, Nimon, Zientek, & Henson, 2012; Krasikova, LeBreton, & Tonidandel, 2011; Lindeman, Merenda, & Gold, 1980; Tonidandel & LeBreton, 2011).”
The Social Consequences of Voice: An Examination of Voice Type and Gender on Status and Subsequent Leader Emergence (2017, methodology): “To test Hypothesis 1c, regarding the relative importance of promotive and prohibitive voice as they relate to status, we conducted a relative importance analysis (Tonidandel & LeBreton, 2011).”
Job Burnout and Employee Engagement (2012, methodology): “…ordinary least squares regression weights), which can provide misleading information when predictors are correlated (as in the present instance), relative weights deliver meaningful and interpretable estimates of predictor strength even given high multicollinearity (Tonidandel & LeBreton, 2011).”
