Variable^a	Age of rated leader						F	p	Scheffé^b
	29 years or younger (n = 672)		30–50 years (n = 7,216)		51 years or older (n = 2,930)
	M	SD	M	SD	M	SD
Subordinates’ ratings of their leaders
Developmental leadership	7.46	1.17	7.43	1.24	7.35	1.33	4.95	0.007	C

Note(s): ^a All scales can range from 1 (lowest frequency/level) to 9 (highest frequency/level)

^b A = Significant difference between the youngest and the mid-groups. B = significant difference between the youngest and oldest group. C = significant difference between the mid- and oldest groups
