of school managers in managing the emotions of teachers during the change

confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). In the result of (EFA), “The scale of
emotions management competencies in the change process” which consists of 21
items, were appointed to have three factors. In addition to this, it was
revealed that the scale explained the 77.11 percent of variance. In the

distinctiveness were high. (CFA), which was implemented to confirm the
construct, demonstrated the high levels of goodness of fit indexes in three-
factor construct of the scale. The
Cronbach’s Alpha coefficients of the factors and the whole scale construct
points that scale is reliable. In line with these findings, it can be concluded
