A Historiometric Examination of Machiavellianism and a New Taxonomy of Leadership
Although researchers have extensively examined the relationship between charismatic leadership and Machiavellianism (Deluga, 2001; Gardner & Avolio, 1995; House & Howell, 1992), there has been a lack of investigation of Machiavellianism in relation to alternative forms of outstanding leadership. Thus, the purpose of this investigation was to examine the relationship between Machiavellianism and a new taxonomy of outstanding leadership comprised of charismatic, ideological, and pragmatic leaders. Using an historiometric approach, raters assessed Machiavellianism via the communications of 120 outstanding leaders in organizations across the domains of business, political, military, and religious institutions. Academic biographies were used to assess twelve general performance measures as well as twelve general controls and five communication specific controls. The results indicated that differing levels of Machiavellianism is evidenced across the differing leader types as well as differing leader orientation. Additionally, Machiavellianism appears negatively related to performance, though less so when type and orientation are taken into account.Yeshttps://us.sagepub.com/en-us/nam/manuscript-submission-guideline

Influence of Distal Residue B10 on CO Dynamics in Myoglobin and Neuroglobin
For many years, myoglobin has served as a paradigm for structure–function studies in proteins. Ligand binding and migration within myoglobin has been studied in great detail by crystallography and spectroscopy, showing that gaseous ligands such as O2, CO, and NO not only bind to the heme iron but may also reside transiently in three internal ligand docking sites, the primary docking site B and secondary sites C and D. These sites affect ligand association and dissociation in specific ways. Neuroglobin is another vertebrate heme protein that also binds small ligands. Ligand migration pathways in neuroglobin have not yet been elucidated. Here, we have used Fourier transform infrared temperature derivative spectroscopy at cryogenic temperatures to compare the influence of the side chain volume of amino acid residue B10 on ligand migration to and rebinding from docking sites in myoglobin and neuroglobin
