| Summary: | Wichem's (1979) Spiritual Leadership Qualities Inventory (SLQI) was developed to provide an objective biblically-based assessment instrument which would facilitate church leadership evaluation and selection. Since its origination, the SLQI has undergone revision. The purpose of this study was to replicate Wichern's (1979) investigation, using the revised Inventory of 19 spiritual leadership traits with an expanded subject pool of 71 elders, deacons and non-Christians. The SLQI was found to significantly discriminate between church leaders and non-Christians (p < .05), but it did not discriminate between elders and deacons. Additional analysis provided a 19 × 19 correlation matrix of traits with 152 of 171 (88.9%) significant correlations (p < .05) and significant test-retest reliabilities (p < .05) for all traits. Implications for the further development and use of the SLQI are discussed. |
