Abstract:

 This study investigated the mediator role of collaborative climate in the relationship between shared instructional leadership and perceived school effectiveness based on teachers perceptions adopting a structural equation model. The research universe included 402 physical education teachers working in Batman Türkiye in the 2022-2023 academic year. Since the researchers aimed to reach all the teachers in the population N402, they did not employ a sampling method. The participants were 272 physical education teachers, with a response rate of 67.66. Pearson correlation coefficients were calculated to reveal the associations among study variables. The findings revealed statistically significant, positive, and high-level correlations among variables. On the other hand, a structural equation model was used to test the hypotheses. The findings suggested that shared instructional leadership had a significant effect on collaborative climate and but not on perceived school effectiveness, and the effect of collaborative climate on perceived school effectiveness was also statistically significant. Lastly, collaborative climate mediated the relationship between shared instructional leadership and perceived school effectiveness. The findings were discussed based on the previous literature, and suggestions were brought for practitioners and researchers.

 : Bu araştırma öğretmen algılarına göre paylaşılan öğretimsel liderlik ile okul etkililiği arasındaki ilişkide işbirlikçi iklimin aracı rolünü incelemektedir. Araştırmada yapısal eşitlik modellemesinden yararlanılmıştır. Araştırma evreni, 2022-2023 öğretim yılında Batman ilinde Türkiye görev yapan 402 beden eğitimi öğretmeninden oluşmaktadır. Araştırmacılar, evrendeki öğretmenlerin tamamına ulaşmayı amaçladıklarından N402 örnekleme yöntemi kullanılmamıştır. Araştırmada 272 beden eğitimi öğretmeni ölçme araçlarını yanıtlamış ve geri dönüş oranı 67.66 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Değişkenler arasındaki ilişkileri ortaya koymak için Pearson korelasyon katsayıları hesaplanmıştır. Değişkenler arasındaki ilişkilere ilişkin bulgular, değişkenler arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı, pozitif ve yüksek düzeyli ilişkilere işaret etmektedir. Öte yandan, araştırma hipotezlerini test etmek için yapısal eşitlik modeli kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular, paylaşılan öğretim liderliğinin işbirlikçi iklimi istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir biçimde yordadığını, ancak algılanan okul etkililiği üzerinde anlamlı bir etkisinin olmadığını; işbirlikçi iklimin algılanan okul etkililiği üzerindeki etkisinin istatistiksel olarak anlamlı olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Öte yandan, işbirlikçi iklimin paylaşılan öğretimsel liderlik ile algılanan okul etkililiği arasındaki ilişkide aracı bir role sahip olduğu saptanmıştır. Söz konusu bulgular, mevcut alanyazına dayalı olarak tartışılarak uygulayıcılar ve araştırmacılar için öneriler getirilmiştir.
