We present a new generalized scaling relationship accounting for relaxation processes of both the real and the imaginary parts of the complex dielectric permittivity data in a wide temperature range of dielectric media. It has been successfully used for experimental data related to various dynamics in liquid crystalline phases of: 4-bromobenzylidene-4′-pentyloxyanilin, 4-bromobenzylidene-4′-hexyloxyaniline, 4′-butyl-4-(2-methylbutoxy) azoxybenzene, and 4-ethyl-4′-octylazoxybenzene. Moreover, the scaling was checked for the theoretical data of Dissado-Hill cluster model. A comparison with earlier scaling, proposed by Nagel and Dendzik, is given.
