Abstract

Eğitim kurumlarının fârik özelliklerinden biri özünde yer alan öğrenme ve öğretme süreçlerinin çoğunlukla uzman eğitimciler tarafından sınıfta bağımsız olarak yürütülmesidir. Bu bağımsızlık ve eşsizlik hali, meslektaş dayanışmasının diğer kurumlara göre eğitim kurumları için daha önemli bir konu olarak ortaya çıkmasına neden olmaktadır. Bu çalışma, eğitimcilerin meslektaş dayanışması ile iş performansı arasındaki ilişkide kişisel ve kurumsal aracı değişkenlerin etkisini incelemektedir. Bu çalışma, eğitimcilerin arasındaki ilişkide meslektaş dayanışması ile iş performansı arasındaki ilişkide üç bireysel değişkenin (işte kendini yetiştirme, öz-yeterlilik ve çalışmaya tutkunluk) ve üç kurumsal değişkenin (meslektaş ilişkileri, idari destek ve örgütsel iklim) toplam 766 katılımcıdan toplanan verileri kullanarak aracı rollerini incelemektedir. Eğitimcilerin meslektaş dayanışması ile iş performansı arasındaki ilişkide kurumsal ve bireysel değişkenlerin aracı etkiye sahip olduğu belirlenmiştir. Bu etkide kurumsal değişkenlerin bireysel değişkenlere göre daha zayıf aracılık etkisine sahip olduğu görülmüştür. Elde edilen sonuç, eğitim mesleğinin kendine özgü doğasının araştırmada incelenen değişkenler açısından farklı bir yapı ortaya koyduğunu göstermektedir

The Mediators of Collegial Solidarity on Job Performance: A Relational Study in the Education Sector

Abstract

One of the distinguishing features of educational institutions is that the learning and teaching processes that are at their core are mostly carried out by expert educators independently on their own in the classroom. This state of independence and solitude causes collegial solidarity to emerge as a more important issue for educational institutions when compared to other institutions. This study examines the mediators of the relationship between educators’ collegial solidarity and job performance. This study examines the mediating roles of three individual variables (i.e., thriving at work, self-efficacy, and work engagement) and three institutional variables (i.e., collegial relations, administrative support, and organizational climate) have on the relationship between educators’ collegial solidarity and job performance using data collected from a total of 766 participants working at educational institutions. It has been determined that institutional and individual variables have a mediating effect in the relationship between educators’ colleague solidarity and job performance. It was observed that institutional variables had a weaker mediating effect than individual variables in this effect. This result shows that the unique nature of the education profession reveals a different structure in terms of the variables examined in the research.
