Below 17.5 years n = 162, 17.5 years and above n = 197<br />

The bivariate correlation analysis results of the sub-groups in which supervisors’<br />

collective hospitality industry experience are fewer than 17.5 years, is compared with<br />

those where the supervisors’ industry experience are 17.5 years and more. The results<br />

presented in Table 33 indicate that LMX difference is moderately correlated to<br />

subordinates’ organisational commitment, and there are no significant differences in<br />

the results. As a result, the differences in supervisors’ industry experience do not have<br />

any influence on the relationship between LMX agreement and subordinates’<br />

organisational commitment. The correlations in both the sub-groups are significant at<br />

the 0.01 level (two-tailed). The results further reveal that LMX difference is not<br />

correlated to subordinate turnover intent among the group in which supervisors’<br />

industry experience is fewer than 17.5 years. Furthermore, there is a small correlation<br />

(.156) between LMX difference and turnover intent in the group in which the<br />
