Abstract

In this research, it is aimed to compare elementary school administrators' authentic leadership features and psychological capital levels. In this direction, it was targeted to determine the authentic leadership and psychological capital levels of the Elementary School Administrators of the City of Istanbul, European Part, and it was researched whether there is a relationship between authentic leadership features and psychological capital levels or not. In order to reach these purposes, Correlation Analysis was performed in determining the relationship between the Authentic Leadership Levels and the Psychological Capital Levels and Regression Analysis was performed in determining the effect of the Psychological Capital Levels on the Authentic Leadership Levels of the Administrators who work in the Elementary School in which the research was conducted.

Abstract

Bu araştırmada ilköğretim okullarında görev yapan yöneticilerin otantik liderlik özelliklerinin ve psikolojik sermaye düzeylerinin karşılaştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Bu doğrultuda İstanbul ili Avrupa yakası ilköğretim okulu yöneticilerinin otantik liderlik ve psikolojik sermaye düzeylerinin belirlenmesi hedeflenmiş, otantik liderlik özellikleriyle psikolojik sermaye düzeyleri arasında ilişki olup olmadığı araştırılmıştır. Araştırmaya katılan ilköğretim okulunda görev yapan yöneticilerinin otantik liderlik düzeyleri ile psikolojik sermaye düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemede “Korelasyon Analizi”, psikolojik sermaye düzeylerinin otantik liderlik özelliklerini yordama düzeylerini belirlemede “Regresyon Analizi” kullanılmıştır. Araştırmaya katılan ilköğretim okulunda görev yapan yöneticilerin otantik liderlik düzeyleri ile psikolojik sermaye düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkinin “Korelasyon Analizi” ile incelenmesi sonucunda psikolojik sermaye unsurları ve otantik liderlik unsurları arasında anlamlı ilişki ortaya çıkmıştır. Psikolojik sermaye düzeylerinin otantik liderlik özelliklerini yordama düzeyini incelemek amacıyla yapılan “Regresyon Analizi” sonuçları incelendiğinde otantik liderlik unsurlarının, psikolojik sermaye unsurlarından etkilendiği başka bir deyişle psikolojik sermaye unsurlarının otantik liderlik unsurlarının yordayıcısı ya da açıklayıcısı olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır.
