The capacity to forgive from a psychological perspective.A scale developed to assess the capacity to forgive, administered to 800 adults (50% males and 50% females) from the general population of the city of Buenos Aires and its suburban area (N: 8(0), is presented. Preliminary research data related to gender, age and religiosity are analyzed, as well as different psychological and philosophical conceptions. We found that women show a higher capacity to forgive than men and that forgiveness is associated to the presence of beliefs about it. According to our results, 88% of men and 95% of women consider that it is important to be able to forgive.

Basados en la teoría de Bass (1985, 1990), se adaptó el cuestionario M.L.Q. (Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire) para la evaluación de los estilos de liderazgo civiles y militares argentinos. Se recogieron datos de 363 sujetos, civiles (53%) y militares cadetes y oficiales (47%). Se realizó un análisis factorial exploratorio y luego confirmatorio resultando una escala de 34 ítems que responde a un modelo de siete factores agrupados en tres estilos de liderazgo. Los resultados señalan mejor ajuste del modelo para población civil que para militar. Se encontraron diferencias individuales entre los estilos de liderazgo de civiles y militares.

Based on Bass' Jeadership model (1985, 1990), the M.L.Q. questionnaire (Multifactor Leader­ship Questionnaire) was validated for the assessment of Jeadership styles in Argentinean civil and military population. Data were gathered (N=363) on military (cadets and officers) and ci­ vilian population. A factorial structure of seven grouped in three styles of Jeadership (34 items) was obtained and it was confirmed by means of confirmatory factor analysis. The results point out better adjustment of the obtained pattern for civil population than for military.

The goal of the study was to identify masculine and feminine prototypes of effective leadership in military population. Data included 262 individuals, 69,5% (n = 182) male and 30,5% (n = 80) female (age average = 25,62 years). 66% of the participants directed other persons and 34% were subordinates. Data collection was carried out administering a survey designed ad-hoc. Participants were requested to name two effective leaders (man and woman) and to justify their election. They mainly identified male leaders with military people belonging not only to current military population but also those recognized because of their heroic feats. In relation with female leaders, subjects identified religious people, militaries belonging to current military population and politicians. We found differences in assigned characteristics to both prototypes.
