Are you interested only in journal articles that are on the web, or
would you accept citations to journal articles that are available in
print or through library databases?

yes, any journal articles.

There are a number of books available about Leadership Practices
Inventory (LPI) at business publishers like John Wiley & Sons. 
Searches for authors James M. Kouzes, Barry Z. Posner and Tom Peters
will yield book titles.

As for journals, many libraries have the Expanded Academic ASAP search
for journal articles: that's where I started with a simple search for
LPI.  It yielded the first two journals, one of which is available in
an abstract via the Internet.  Afterwards we tried an Internet search
and found at least 5 more journal articles.  Note that the Google
search strategy below yields over 200 references, including doctoral
dissertations -- which I've EXCLUDED in this summary:

1.  Journal of Occupational and Organizational Psychology, (June 2001)
"Assessing the discriminant validity of the Leadership Practices
Inventory" Sally A. Carless:

2.  Journal of Applied Social Psychology

Department Executive Officers in Agricultural Education" (Fall, 1993)

7.	NASPA Journal
"Effective Orientation Advisors are Also Leaders" (Fall, 1997)
Barry Posner, Jeanne Rosenberger:

Other fruitful places to look for journal articles will be places in
which the authors above have participated as editors:

Journal of Management Education
http://bernard.pitzer.edu/~obts/jme/JMEWeb.htm

Journal of Management Inquiry
http://www.sagepub.co.uk/journals/details/j0154.html

Journal of Business Ethics
http://ejbo.jyu.fi/index.cgi?page=cover

Search strategy -- via Expanded Academic ASAP (on-line at many
libraries):
LPI

Google search:
"leadership practices" + LPI + journal
