Abstract

In the previous studies of military morale, the results were still insufficient with regard to the conceptualization and measurement. Their major causes were indirect approaches to the concept and the use of uni-dimesional analysis. In this study, therefore, military morale was directly approached to measure as a type of mood and multivariate analysis were used. For this purpose, the study consists of 2 parts. At first, 2 questionnaires for the measurement of morale factors and leadership styles were developed, in which the data were dealt with Principal-Axes Factor Analysis. In the second place, stepwisc Multiple Regression and Canonical Analysis were applied to look into the relationship between morale factors and leadership styles. These methods presented alternatives to determine the order of effective leadership styles in various aspects. These are improving as follows : 1) morale factors in seperate, 2) general morale in whole and 3) major morale factors. Especially, Canonical Analysis could offer a priority of goal setting for morale improving in general.
