The effect of leadership on organisational commitment: A meta-analysis

Author(s): Adem ÇİLEK / Language(s): English Issue: 4/2019

This research aims to investigate the effects of leadership behaviour of school principals on teachers' organisational commitment in Turkey. The method of meta-analysis is used to calculate the effects size of leadership on teachers' organisational commitment. Besides this, leadership style, publication type and publication year are used as moderators in order to explain variation in effect sizes. The analysis results of the random effect model showed that leadership has a very strong and positive effect on teachers' organisational commitment. Particularly, supporting, democratic and transformational leadership styles affect organisational commitment of teachers more than other leadership approaches. However, except leadership styles, the other moderators chosen for the research are not a powerful determinant of the relationship between school leadership and organisational commitment.

A qualitative research on organizational peace in schools

Author(s): Yurdagul Dogus / Language(s): English Issue: 4/2019

The concept of organisational peace is a dynamic situation that can develop through open communication, whose main elements are justice, trust and goodwill, and affect the peace and happiness of individuals. Organisational peace consists of two dimensions such as ‘internal organisational peace’ and ‘external organisational peace’. ‘Internal organisational peace’, which is formed by relations and conditions within the organisation itself, is influenced by four factors such as individual, organisational, managerial and job characteristics. The ‘external organisational peace’, which is formed by the organisation's relations with others, stems from the direct–indirect, optional or obligatory interactions of the organisation. External organisational peace is influenced by five factors such as hierarchical relations, close environment, other organisations, society and global relations. This research is the first study that provides a conceptual framework for the concept of organisational peace and examines the concept of organisational peace empirically. The aim of this study is to determine the views of teachers in the ‘internal organisational peace’ dimension in schools. The research was carried out in the phenomenological design of qualitative research methods. The study group consisted of 10 teachers selected by the criterion sampling method. Teachers explain the concept of organisational peace with happiness, common goals, cooperation, justice, comfort, democratic values, harmony, respect and healthy communication. Factors that promote ‘internal organisational peace’ are positive personality, job satisfaction, fair practices, effective organisational communication, competencies of managers and good physical conditions of the job. Factors that prevent ‘internal organisational peace’ are negative personality, violent behaviour, unfair management, closed communication and bad physical conditions of the job.

Organisational learning: A scale development study

Author(s): Tuba Yavas,Vehbi Çelik / Language(s): English Issue: 4/2020

This study aims to develop a scale in order to determine the organisational learning levels of educational organisations. The scale took its final form after the items were written, experts’ opinions were received and pilot applications were implemented. A survey was administered to 267 teachers using a simple random sampling method. An 18-itemorganisational learning scale (OLS) was obtained as a result of the exploratory factor analysis. OLS was prepared on the basis of frequency (never-always) to render a possible 5-point Likert type measurement. This 18-item scale was validated by confirmatory factor analyses (CFAs). The factor analyses carried out revealed an 18-item scale with a total of four subscales.These subscales are continuous learning, cognitive processes, transparency and issue orientation. The goodness of fit index values revealed by the results of the CFA carried out indicated that OLS is valid and acceptable. Cronbach’s alpha reliability coefficients of the factors ranged between 0.65 and 0.81. The overall Cronbach’s alpha reliability coefficient of the OLS was determined as 0.85 and its Kaiser–Meyer–Olkin (KMO) value was determined as 0.87. In conclusion, OLS is proposed as a scale based on which the organisational learning levels of schools can be measured in four different subscales.

Author(s): Özge Özberk,Kenan Özberk / Language(s): English Issue: 3/2018

This study aims to find ‘the reflection of organisational culture on technology usage in secondary education classes’. Ten teachers were chosen as participants via chain sampling. The data were collected by means of open-ended questions asked at semi-structured interviews. The data was processed via content and thematic analyses. Tables were used to present the data. The findings of the study indicate that the school leaders are unable to find efficient solutions to problems about in-class technology usage. It is also determined that virus programs on computers are not up to date. Teachers do not prefer using technology in their classes since they are anxious about falling behind the annual plan and the classes are over-crowded. Another noteworthy finding is that even though some teachers use technology for educational purposes, they help each other and share their materials, and there are some teachers who do not act responsibly concerning the usage and protection of the devices.

İş Yaşamında Yalnızlığın Örgütsel Ses Üzerindeki Etkisi

Author(s): Ümit Şevik / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 13/2021

Organizational voice and silence are multidimensional concepts located at two different poles. While there are studies in the literature examining the relationship between organizational silence and loneliness, there are not enough studies on the relationship between organizational voice and loneliness. Within the scope of the “exit, voice and loyalty” model of Hirschman (1970), employees give various reactions to negativities. In this study, the effects of loneliness in the workplace on organizational voice were examined within the scope of the responses of the employees. In line with the purpose of the study, a questionnaire was applied to 330 employees working in Ankara using the convenience sampling method. In the study, "Workplace Loneliness Scale" and "Organizational Voice Scale" were used. Within the scope of the study, the data were analyzed using SPSS 24 and AMOS 24 programs. It was determined that the fit values of the model (CMIN\DF=2.192; GFI=0.879; AGFI=0.848; IFI=0.927; RMSEA=0.060) were found to be between acceptable values. As a result of the analyzes, the emotional deprivation sub-dimension has a positive relationship on the defensive voice (β=.624, p<0.001), while social companionship sub-dimension has a negative relationship on the acquiescent voice (β=-.434, p<0.001) and prosocial voice (β = -.787, p<0.001). In addition, significant differences between variables according to demographic characteristics were examined and recommendations were made for future studies.

The aim of this study is to investigate the Turkish validity and reliability of the Intrinsic Motivation Scale developed by Kuvaas (2006), Kuvaas and Dysvik (2009), which is used to measure the intrinsic motivation of employees. The sample consists of employees over the age of 18. In order to carry out the validity and reliability study, after the linguistic validation (trans-late-back translate), a pre-test was applied and the validity of the scale was examined with the help of two different samples (N = 210, N = 262). Both samples consist of employees. The scale was evaluated with five-point Likert as in the original. Explanatory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were used to investigate the factor structure of the intrinsic motivation scale. Cronbach alpha and composite reliability values were calculated for the measurement of reliability, and AVE was calculated for convergent validity. As a result of explanatory factor analysis, factor load values were obtained over 0.50. At the same time, fit indices provided by confirmatory factor analysis results were within the acceptable range. According to results, the Turkish version of the Intrinsic Motivation Scale is a valid and reliable measurement tool to conduct researches in the Turkish context.

ORGANIZATIONAL AND PROFESSIONAL COMMITMENT: THE COMPARATIVE STUDY

Author(s): Jolanta Bieńkowska / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2012

The article aims to present issues connected with a commitment in relation to the current transformations of working conditions. Presently people work for many employers during their working lives; hence insecurity of employment became a determinant of the work situation. On the other hand, the employees are guided by the need for personal fulfillment and intellectual development in the professional field. This raises the question of whether organizational commitment, understood as a commitment to the workplace, is still a research problem, or whether another kind of commitment is developing- commitment to the occupation. This dilemma is the result of analysis of the behavior of employees. The observations indicate that some people do their work at a high level regardless of place of employment, identifying themselves with the profession performed. They are guided by the need for professionalism, not by the need for staying in the organization. The article aims to present two positions on commitment, by providing arguments in favor of importance of both aspects according to the different needs of employees. Moreover, this paper outlines the proposed directions of empirical research, undertaking of which would allow for broadening knowledge about changes in attitudes of people towards work.

In recent years, the relationship between moral emotions and positive work outcomes in organizational studies has attracted great attention by researchers. Moral emotions family serves to support the moral standards institutionalized by the society. In organizational context, it helps individuals to evaluate not only their own behaviour but also the behaviour of others they interact with. Moral elevation, which is an emotion belonging to the family of moral emotions; refers to the emotion that individuals experience when they witness a moral beauty. Current literature provides numerous studies conducted to explore and test the conceptualization of moral elevation, its antecedents and consequences and the linkage mechanisms with other concepts. This conceptual study will outline the moral elevation literature by drawing its theoretical background and identify the findings and variables linked to the concept. Introducing moral elevation concept to the local literature will be expected to guide scholars for further research. Suggestions for theoretical research and practical implications are presented for both scholars and practitioners.

ALLUVA ROLL JUHI KUJUNDAMISEL

Author(s): Semjon Malinovski / Language(s): Polish Issue: 13/2022

Kõik inimesed on erinevad ning seda, kuidas nad omavahel suhtlevad või hakkama saavad, võib parimal juhul vaid osaliselt ette aimata. Sellele vaatamata üritatakse inimeste käitumisele leida siiski loogilisi selgitusi ja selle kohta tehakse rohkeid teadusuuringuid. Paljude arvates mõjutavad inimese käitumist eelkõige tema enda isiksuseomadused, hoiakud ja väärtushinnangud. Paratamatult mõjutab inimest ka teda ümbritsev keskkond, kuhu kuuluvad teised inimesed. Sõjaväeline keskkond ei ole siinkohal erandiks. Paljudes organisatsioonides nagu ka Eesti kaitseväes üritatakse mehitada olemasolevad ametikohad selleks sobivate töötajatega.
