Summary/Abstract: Leadership styles of school directors affect teachers’ perceptions of school effectiveness and organizational attitudes. This study investigates the effect of school administrators' leadership behavior on teachers’ attitudes and perceptions of school effectiveness through an analytical research design and meta-analysis method. Leadership behavior encompasses transformational leadership, transactional leadership, ethical leadership and instructional leadership, and teachers’ organizational attitudes are operationalized through organizational commitment, perceptions of organizational justice, job satisfaction, organizational citizenship and perceptions of school effectiveness. The study incorporates data obtained from a set of 33 studies using samples from pre-school, primary and secondary schools in Turkey between 2001 and 2015, which yields 47 usable correlational data. According to the results of the analysis using random effects model, ethical leadership has the greatest effect on teachers’ attitudes and perceptions of school effectiveness, followed by transformational leadership, instructional leadership, and transactional leadership respectively. An analysis of the effect sizes reveal that the highest effect is between ethical leadership and organizational justice whereas the lowest effect is between transactional leadership and job satisfaction.
