    Abstract
    The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship of Queen Beeness to level in the organization and leadership behaviors among nurses in administrative positions. The role episode model incorporating the impact of · . personal, interpersonal, and organizational factors on the role of the. nurse served as the theoretical base for the study. Using a descriptive-correlational design, .secondary data from 268 first, mid, and top level nurse administrators employed at six different types of inpatient settings in the southeast United States was analyzed using Pearson Product Moment correlation, one-way analysis of variance, and stepwise multiple regression analysis. Halsey's Queen Bee tool and Hersey and Blanchard's LEAD-Self tool were used to collect the data. Findings indicated that there was no relationship betw.een Queen Beeness and the independent variables, level in the organization, leadership styles, low relationship leadership behaviors, and leadership adaptability among administrators in nursing, except on four of the seven subcategories of Queen Beeness. Level in the organization, styles I and 2 (telling and selling styles), and leadership adaptability were found to be significantly related to the Queen Bee subcategories: . subordinate career development, decision making method, perspective of the system, and reference group. Mid level administrators had significantly higher mean scores at the P= .01 level than did first or top level administrators on "decision making method." Top level administrators had a vi / significantly more positive "perspective of the system" in which they were employed. (P= .01) than did the first and mid level administrators. Mid and top level administrators identified significantly more strongly with other "reference groups." First and mid level administrators employed the selling style significantly more often (P= .05) than did top level administrators. On the basis of these findings, implications for job selection and placement and educational preparation of nurses in administrative positions are presented.
