Abstract

In the study, it was aimed to present the perceptions of the teachers working at public and private schools located in Adapazarı, Serdivan and Erenler districts of Sakarya on causes of organizational dissent. The target population of the research consisted of 6277 teachers. As the sample of the study, 573 teachers who were chosen via stratified sampling method participated in the study. As the data collection tool, “Causes of Dissent”, a subscale of “Organizational Dissent Scale” which was developed by Özdemir (2010), was utilized. In the data analysis, means and standard deviations of the responses to the scale items were calculated. T-test and ANOVA were utilized to demonstrate whether the teachers’ perceptions on causes of organizational dissent showed any significant difference in accordance with different variables. The results of the study indicated that there is no significant difference in the teachers’ percepions on causes of organiational dissent according to gender, age, education level, work experience, marital status, union membership, school size, and managerial experience. On the other hand, it was found out that there is a significant difference in teachers’ perceptions on causes of organizational dissent in accordance with the perceived management style of school administrators.

Öğretmenlerin Örgütsel Muhalefetin Nedenlerine İlişkin Görüşleri

Abstract

Bu çalışmada Sakarya ili Adapazarı, Serdivan ve Erenler ilçelerindeki resmi ve özel okullarda görev yapan öğretmenlerin örgütsel muhalefet nedenlerine ilişkin görüşlerini ortaya koymak amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmanın evrenini Adapazarı, Serdivan ve Erenler ilçelerinde görev yapan 6277 öğretmen oluşturmaktadır. Örneklem olarak bu evrenden, tabakalı örnekleme yöntemi ile seçilen 573 öğretmen araştırmaya katılım sağlamıştır. Veri toplama aracı olarak, Özdemir (2010) tarafından geliştirilen Örgütsel Muhalefet Ölçeği’nin, alt ölçeği olan Muhalefetin Nedenleri Ölçeği uygulanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde anket maddelerine verilen yanıtların aritmetik ortalama ve standart sapma değerleri hesaplanmıştır. Muhalefet nedenlerinin, çeşitli değişkenlere göre anlamlı fark gösterip göstermediği t-testi ve ANOVA ile analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmada öğretmenlerin muhalefet nedenlerinin cinsiyet, yaş, eğitim durumu, mesleki kıdem, medeni durum, sendika üyeliği, okul büyüklüğü ve yöneticilik tecrübesine göre farklılık göstermediği, ancak okul yöneticisinin algılanan yönetim tarzına göre anlamlı fark olduğu belirlenmiştir.
