본 연구의 목적은 중국 현지 대학교 학장의 분산적 지도성이 조직효과성에 미치는 영향에서 조직헌신과 직무만족이 어떠한 매개효과를 나타내는지를 검증하는데 있다. 이를 위해 중국 하북지역의 3개 대학 383명의 교수를 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 학장의 분산적 지도성은 조직효과성, 조직헌신, 교수의 직무만족에 긍정적인 영향을 주었다. 둘째, 학장의 분산적 지도성은 조직효과성에 직접적인 영향을 준다. 셋째, 조직헌신, 직무만족은 분산적 지도성과 조직효과성 관계에서 매개역할을 한다. 따라서 중국대학교의 조직효과성을 높이기 위해서는 학장의 분산적 지도성의 활성화와 함께 교수의 조직헌신과 직무만족 향상의 노력이 필요하다.
