对师徒关系的研究一直受到关键问题碎片化的困扰；具体地说，师徒关系的类型，导师服务的功能，以及师徒关系的结果。一项实地研究比较了212名参加非正式发展的师徒关系的学生、53名参加正式师徒关系的学生和284名没有师徒关系的学生。非正式和正式指导下的个体在两个指导维度上进行了比较：心理社会和职业相关功能。所有组在三个结果测量上进行比较：组织社会化，工作满意度和薪水。结果表明，与正式师徒关系的学生相比，非正式师徒关系的学生获得了更多的职业相关支持和更高的工资。对于所有的结果变量，非正式指导下的门徒也比没有指导的人报告了更有利的结果。然而，在正式的指导下，其他两组的门徒的结果通常不显著。讨论了指导实践和研究的意义。
Research on mentorships has suffered from fragmentation of key issues; specifically, type of mentoring relationship, functions served by the mentor, and outcomes of the mentoring relationship. A field study was conducted comparing 212 proteges who were involved in informally developed mentorships, 53 proteges involved in formal mentorship programs, and 284 individuals who did not have mentors. Individuals in informal and formal mentorships were compared along two mentoring dimensions: psychosocial and career-related functions. All groups were compared on three outcome measures: organizational socialization, job satisfaction, and salary. Results indicated proteges in informal mentorships reported more career-related support from their mentors and higher salaries than proteges in formal mentorships. For all outcome variables, proteges in informal mentorships also reported more favorable outcomes than nonmentored individuals. However, outcomes from proteges in formal mentorships were generally not significant from the other two groups. Implications for mentorship practices and research are discussed.
