Investigation of Relationship Between Principals’ Self Efficacy and School Effectiveness

Abstract

The aim of this research is to determine the relationship between principals’ self efficacy and school effectiveness. The research sample consists of 199 school principals. In the study, in order to determine principals self-efficacy, “Principal Sense of Efficacy Scale” which was developed by Tschannen-Moran and Gareis (2004) and adopted into Turkish by Negiş-Işık and Derinbay (2015), and “Index of Perceived Organizational Effectiveness” which was developed by Hoy and Ferguson (1985) adapted into Turkish by the researchers in this study was used. Research findings indicated that only socio-economic status of students, within individual and school variables, was associated with principals self-efficacy. Findings of this research also concluded that principal self-efficacy was a significant predictor of school effectiveness.
