RQ:
Much of the destructive leadership literature has examined the effects of destructive leader behaviors on employees’ productivity, mental health, or turnover intent, but the focus is often on overtly abusive forms and neglects to examine the long-term effects on employees' sense of self. More subtle forms (such as gaslighting, undermining, destructive yes-saying) are often ignored or not included due to their covert nature. However, they're psychological effects on employees may be more impactful than the overt, flagrant abuse, due to their overlooked subtleties. I seek to answer the question: What is the difference between the effect of overt and covert destructive leadership on employees’ professional identity formation?

Wow, what a fascinating topic. I look forward to learning more about your findings!
Because my RQ is “How does male allyship shape perceptions of support for female leaders by male and female observers?”, I would try a variation of the following terms:
Male allyship |
Female leaders |
Perceptions |
Men as allies |
Women leaders |
Beliefs |
Male advocates |
Women in leadership |
Attitudes |
Male support |
Gender and leadership |
Observer perceptions |
Male sponsorship |
Women in the workplace |
Views |
Male champion* |
|
|
Boolean strings
Example: “male allyship” OR “male support” OR “men as allies” AND “female leaders” OR “women in leadership” AND “perceptions” OR “views” OR “observer perceptions”.

Hi Julia! For allyship, there are many terms that are similar but different you may want to consider including: allyhood, ally work, allied behavior, allied labor, champion, solidarity, solidarity-based collective action, collective action (this gives you more than allyship but is often used with allyship), sponsorship, co-conspiratorship
RQ: How do student-teacher relationships impact male identifying individuals understanding of themselves?

Hi Valeriya!
For your search, I'd suggest adding the terms "AI" and "well-being" to account for any deviations in how people spell well being or in case some articles only use the acronym in the title or abstract (not sure if you want to filter further or look at all results).
Research Question: Based on experimental and quasi-experimental evidence, what is the causal effect of leadership interventions (e.g., styles, behaviors, or training programs) on individual, team, and organizational outcomes?
Search:
(leader* OR manager* OR supervisor* OR executive* OR "leadership style*" OR "leadership behavior*" OR "transformational leader*" OR "transactional leader*" OR "servant leader*" OR "leader* training” OR "leader* development" OR "leader* effectiveness")
AND
("experiment*" OR "randomized controlled trial" OR "RCT" OR "field experiment" OR "lab experiment” OR "quasi-experiment*" OR "natural experiment*" OR "controlled trial" OR "intervention*")
Jas, I think you can search for all these outcomes in one search using the operator OR
Your search terms tend to focus on the term "male"; what about "men" or "masculine" or "gender" (i.e., other terms that pull literature related to your topic that might not use the term "male")?
