“…For example, Holton and colleagues focused on developing an instrument that measures, among other factors, trainees’ perceptions of the support they received from their supervisor (e.g., Bates, Holton, & Hatala, ; Holton, Bates, Bookter, & Yamkovenko, ). Moreover, over the past three decades several studies have been conducted on the nature of the relationship between supervisor support and transfer of training, and the majority of the results indicated a positive relationship (e.g., Al‐Eisa, Furayyan, & Alhemoud, ; Chiaburu, Van Dam, & Hutchins, ; Cromwell & Kolb, ; Ellström & Ellström, ; Gumuseli & Ergin, ; Heilmann, Bartczak, Hobbs, & Leach, ; Nijman et al, ; Sookhai & Budworth, ; Zamani, Ataei, & Bates, ). In addition to the direct effects, there are also studies that pointed to an indirect effect of support of the supervisor on transfer of training.…”
