Abstract: Using the group engagement model, we hypothesize that two differentiated leadership constructs – LMX differentiation at the group level and a new construct, LMX relational separation, at the individual-within-group level – interact with LMX to affect follower citizenship behaviors (OCB) and turnover intentions. Data from 223 followers and their leaders situated across 60 workgroups demonstrate that the effects of individual perceived LMX quality are contingent upon a group's overall variability in LMX (i.e., LMX differentiation) and employees' similarity in terms of LMX with their coworkers (i.e., LMX relational separation). Specifically, the effects of high quality LMX relationships on OCB and turnover intentions are weaker when group LMX differentiation or employees' LMX relational separation is higher, rather than lower. Our findings contribute to a growing stream of multilevel LMX research incorporating climate effects and offer an alternative view of differentiated leadership in groups. Key implications for theory and practice are discussed.

The integrated effects of leader–member exchange social comparison on job performance and OCB in the Chinese context
TL;DR: Zhang et al. as discussed by the authors examined a dual process model to explain how and when LMXSC affects employee performance outcomes in the Chinese context and found that the mediating roles of employees' perceived obligation toward the leader and self-esteem are examined simultaneously in the relationship between LM XSC and job performance and organizational citizenship behavior (OCB).
