Abstract: Hierarchical multiple regression was employed to assess the relationship between cognitive, social, and behavioral complexity (Leaderplex Model (Hooijberg, Hunt & Dodge, 1997)) and student achievement data for the purpose of quantifying Texas superintendent (N=146) leadership effectiveness leading toward professional development. A subset of items from the Driver-Streufert Complexity Index (Janasz & Behson, 2007), the Range and Differentiation of Emotional Experience Scale (Kang & Shaver, 2004), and the Competing Values Framework (Lawrence, Lenk & Quinn, 2009) were used to assess cognitive complexity, social complexity, and behavioral complexity, respectively. Insignificant results point to the challenges of using only self-reported, quantitative measures to quantify superintendent effectiveness.
