    Paternalistic School Principal Behaviours and Teachers’ Participation in Decision Making: The Intermediary Role of Teachers’ Trust in Principals
    (Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi, 2020) Cansoy, Ramazan; Poltcan, Mahmut; Parlar, Hanifi
    In this study, the effect of school principals’ administrative mentality on teachers’ participation in the decision-making process was analysed via the intermediary role of teachers’ trust in principals. In this study, which utilised structural equation modelling (SEM) to analyse conceptual relationships, the sample consisted of 646 teachers who worked in various school types in the Çekmeköy district of Istanbul. In the findings, a positive correlation was found between benevolent and moral leadership (dimensions of paternalistic leadership behaviour), and trust in principals and teachers’ participation in decision making. On the other hand, a negative and significant relationship was found between the authoritarian leadership dimension and trust in principals and teachers’ participation. The results of the SEM analysis, in which the conceptual model was tested, indicated that the benevolent and moral leadership dimensions of paternalistic leadership could positively predict trust in the administrator and teachers’ participation in decision making. As for authoritarian leadership, it negatively predicted teachers’ participation in decision making, and trust in principals played a full intermediary role in this relationship. When these findings were synthesised, morality and benevolence were found to affect teachers’ trust in principals and participation positively, while authoritarian leadership was found to have a negative effect.

    Research on teacher self-efficacy in Turkey: 2000-2017
    (Sciedu Press, 2018) Cansoy, Ramazan; Poltcan, Mahmut; Parlar, Hanifi
    In this study, 48 empirical studies on teacher self-efficacy published between 2000-2017 were reviewed in terms of certain basic characteristics, and the research trends were revealed in this area. According to the results obtained in the review, teacher self-efficacy studies in the Turkish context showed an increase in the course of time. Teacher self-efficacy in a specific area was observed to be frequently examined within the context of teaching a subject or using technology in education. This increase in the number of studies did not reflect much on the diversity of the research methods employed, and the studies were often conducted by using quantitative methods. Elementary and middle schools were mostly chosen as the research context. Furthermore, the amount of research on three self-efficacy areas (i.e. collective teacher efficacy, teacher self-efficacy sources, and teachers’ general self-efficacy) were considerably limited. Moreover, none of the studies examined the relationship between teacher self-efficacy and collective teacher efficacy and student achievement. Common findings of the studies showed that teacher self-efficacy was a strong predictor or a mediator variable. In this sense, researchers are suggested to study how self-efficacy can be developed experimental and longitudinal works and to conduct studies to reveal insights about collective efficacy in schools, teachers’ general self-efficacy, and the outcomes of these efficacy characteristics.
