Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between organizational justice and cynicism at school organizations. Thus, explanatory sequential research design, in which both qualitative and quantitative methods are used, has been used. Under the quantitative part, meta-analysis has been used so that 159 studies consist of articles and dissertations about cynicism being done within Turkey have been reached throughout literature. With further enquiries, it was found that 16 of them include the relationship between organizational justice and cynicism. Considering inclusion criteria, eight studies which include necessary data for the relationship between organizational justice and cynicism were put into meta-analysis step. However, in the qualitative part, the research was designed through phenomenological research design in which 17 teachers, chosen in terms of maximum-variation sampling strategy, were interviewed via a semi-structured interviewing form. The results revealed that teachers' perceptions for organization justice have a strong but negative effect on their likelihood to experience cynicism while it was also found that publication type is not a proper moderator on effect size. On the other hand, within the qualitative analysis, it was found that teachers develop negative beliefs against school, managers and teachers; experience feelings such as anger, distrust, sadness, hatred and alienation and thus criticize school and managers, behave recklessly and opponent as a result of unfair practices.

Abstract

The aim of this research was to analyze the measurement invariance of the "Teachers' Sense of Self-Efficacy Scale," developed by Tschannen-Moran and Hoy, and adapted into Turkish and Turkish culture by Çapa, Çakıroğlu and Sarıkaya, with respect to gender. Turkish version of the scale consists of 24 items and 3 subscales. The scale measures pre-service teachers' and teachers' sense of and belief in self-efficacy for student engagement, classroom management and instructional strategies. Research revealed that the scale is being used by a myriad of researchers. The sample of this study consists of 267 female, 163 male pre-service teachers who participated in the Pedagogical Formation Certificate Traning at Inönü University in the 2017-2018 academic years. First of all, CFA was executed in order to confirm the validity of the scale's current structure for both genders which was confirmed based on the analysis results. Then, MGCFA was executed to analyze the scale's measurement invariance in terms of gender. The results of the MGCFA indicated that the scale has the measurement invariance with respect to gender at each of the stages of strict, metric, scalar and configural invariance.
