Ho and Nesbit (2009) modified their RSLQ study in order to accommodate the
Chinese context of the self-leadership dimensions that did not uniformly generalize in
Neubert and Wu's (2006) RSLQ study. Ho and Nesbit (2009) refined the cross-cultural application of specific dimensions that had "low reliabilities or unstable factor structure
in Neubert and Wu's validation research, namely natural rewards, self-observation,
evaluating beliefs and assumptions" (p. 454). The cross cultural challenge for Ho and
Nesbit was to modify RSLQ in a way that accommodated the interpretation of a highly
collectivist non-Western culture such as the Chinese (p. 456).
