Data from Bliese and Halverson (1996)

Description

The complete data used in Bliese and Halverson (1996). The dataset contains 4 variables: Cohesion (COHES), Leadership Climate (LEAD), Well-Being (WBEING) and Work Hours (HRS). Each of these variables has two variants - a group mean version that replicates each group mean for every individual in the group, and a within-group version where the group mean is subtracted from each individual response (i.e., a group-mean centered or demeaned variable). The group mean version is designated with a G. (e.g., G.HRS), and the within-group version is designated with a W. (e.g., W.HRS).
