Relationship Effectiveness for Mentors: Factors Associated with Learning and Quality
研究从导师视角探讨了影响导师关系有效性的因素，发现导师与相似性高的被指导者关系质量更高、学习效果更好；导师关系类型（正式与非正式）本身不直接影响有效性，但与关系持续时间有交互作用。
The present study focused on mentorship effectiveness from the perspective of the mentor. Specifically, factors related to relationship quality and learning were investigated. Mentors in relationships with others perceived to be similar reported the mentorship to be of higher quality and greater learning than did mentors in relationships with less similar others. Results also indicated that mentorship type (formal vs. informal) did not have a direct relationship with mentorship effectiveness, but did interact with mentorship duration. Additional results and implications are discussed.
