Leader-member exchange model

The work-in-progress theoretical framework was present to my supervisor Prof. Noormala in January, 2013. After the discussion with her, we concluded there is a need to simplify the model. The discussion led to the possibility of dropping the variable supervisor's organizational embodiment (SOE) variable. I am still reserved at taking out SOE. My assumption here is employee's organizational embodiment (EOE) is my contribution to the body of knowledge. I still need to identity the context of Leader-Member Exchange (LMX) and SOE. I have to explain how LMX and SOE affects EOE which leads to the outcome of organizational commitment. The question that arise from the theoretical framework is how organizational identification fit into all these? How to measure EOE? What are the critiques on LMX, Organizational Identification, EOE and Organizational Commitment (OC)? Are there new terms for OC?
