Abstract
Delbert M. Nebeker Greater economy in theory and improved research design can result from integrating existing contingency approaches to organization and leadership. This article presents the conceptual and empirical basis for a possible combining of Fiedler's contingency model of leadership effectiveness and Lawrence and Lorsch's contingency organization theory.1 Using perceived environmental uncertainty as the integrating concept, in two independent studies, a measure of decision uncertainty was found to be significantly related to Fiedler's dimension of situational favorability.
