Abstract
Why is the High-Performance and High-Maintenance type leadership most effective? According to PM theory, type-P behavior becomes more effective when affected by type-M behavior. In this paper, this hypothesis was tested in 2×3 design [(M, m)× (P-0, 2, 24times)] with 90 female subjects. The result indicated that type-M behavior made type-P behavior more effective both in the number of tappings and the percent correct detection of the target, and the interaction effect in the tapping task was more distinct for the subjects with high achivement motive. And it was suggested that the subject's perception of type-P behavior as the social power was changed from legitimate and coercive to expert type under the influence of type-M behavior.
