Abstract

This study aims to examine the influence of the principal’s role and organizational commitment on teachers’ work motivation in public elementary schools in Boja District, Kendal Regency. Employing a quantitative approach with an ex post facto survey design, data were collected from 103 teachers selected through stratified random sampling from a total population of 138 teachers across 16 public elementary schools. The primary data source comprised teacher responses to validated Likert-scale questionnaires measuring three variables: the principal’s role, organizational commitment, and teacher work motivation. Data analysis, conducted using SPSS 26, included Pearson product-moment correlation to assess the strength of bivariate relationships, simple linear regression to evaluate the individual influence of each independent variable, and multiple linear regression to examine their combined effect. Hypothesis testing was performed at a significance level of α = 0.05 to determine the statistical validity of each relationship. The results indicated that the principal’s role had a significant positive influence on teacher motivation, accounting for 22.7% of the variance, while organizational commitment had a slightly greater influence, contributing 24.4%. When analyzed simultaneously, both variables explained 32.8% of the variance in teacher motivation, demonstrating a moderately strong and statistically significant combined effect. These findings underscore the importance of enhancing school leadership and cultivating organizational commitment as strategic efforts to improve teacher motivation—an essential factor in sustaining teacher performance and advancing educational outcomes.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of principal leadership and teacher self-development on the professional competence of public senior high school teachers in Rembang Regency. Employing a quantitative research approach with a correlational ex post facto design and a survey method, data were collected through validated Likert-scale questionnaires from a sample of 214 teachers, selected using purposive and proportionate stratified random sampling from a total population of 460 teachers. The data were analyzed using SPSS through simple and multiple linear regression, correlation, and coefficient of determination analysis. The findings indicate that both principal leadership and teacher self-development have significant and positive effects on teacher professional competence, both individually and simultaneously. Principal leadership contributes 49.5% to competence (r = 0.704), with participative leadership as the strongest dimension and collaboration-building as the weakest. Teacher self-development contributes 48.8% (r = 0.698), with knowledge improvement as the most influential factor and teacher reaction as the least. Jointly, both variables explain 54.7% of the variance in professional competence (R = 0.740). Among the competence dimensions, monitoring student learning outcomes had the strongest influence, while commitment to students and the learning process was the weakest. These findings emphasize the importance of fostering participative leadership and promoting continuous self-development to enhance teacher performance and educational quality.
