Son yıllarda araştırmacılar, öğrenci başarısının artırılmasında bağlamında akademik iyimserlik kavramının araştırılmasına yoğun bir zaman ve çaba harcamaktadırlar. Bu araştırmanın amacı, okulların bürokratik yapıları ile öğretmenlerin akademik iyimserlik düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkilerin incelenmesidir. Bürokratik okul yapısı ile öğretmenlerin akademik iyimserlik algıları arasındaki ilişkilere odaklanan mevcut araştırma, ilişkisel tarama modelinde tasarlanmış ve veri toplamak amacıyla ölçek kullanılmıştır. Araştırmaya, Kastamonu ili merkez ilçe sınırları içinde bulunan 14 ilköğretim okulunda görev yapan toplam 211 öğretmen katılmıştır. Araştırma verilerinin toplanmasında, Hoy ve Sweetland (2000) tarafından geliştirilen ve Buluç (2009) tarafından Türkçeye uyarlanan "Okul Yapısının Etkililiği Ölçeği" ve Beard, Hoy ve Woolfolk Hoy (2009) tarafından geliştirilen ve Yıldız (2011) tarafından Türkçeye uyarlanan "Bireysel Akademik İyimserlik Ölçeği" kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde ortalama, standart sapma, korelasyon ve regresyon analizi kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonuçları, etkili bürokratik okul yapısı ile öğretmenlerin akademik iyimserlik düzeyleri arasında olumlu ve anlamlı bir ilişki olduğunu ve etkili bürokratik okul yapısının öğretmenlerin akademik iyimserlik düzeylerinin anlamlı bir yardayıcısı olduğunu göstermektedir. Araştırma sonuçları, etkili bürokratik okul yapılarının ve öğretmenlerin akademik iyimserlik algılarının geliştirilmesi bağlamında tartışılmıştır.
