makes a poor leader. To test
this assumption, 40 men college

we're compared by scientific
tests with nonleaders on the
qualities OF dominance, sociabil-
ity and self-confidence. The
leaders made higher scores than
nonlcaderS on dominance, but
were no higher on sociability.
The women leaders were
markedly higher than nonlead-
erS or self.confidence, the men
only moderately higher. al
