PRINCIPAL'S LEADERSHIP BEHAVIOR, TEACHER'S DECISIONAL PARTICIPATION, TEACHER'S JOB SATISFACTION AND STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT.
Abstract
The level of satisfaction and productivity by organization members has been a persistent concern of educational researchers. Considerable prior research has concentrated on the relationship between employee satis- faction and such extrinsic factors as economic salary and benefit levels (Morse, 1953), physical environment (Katz and Kahn, 1962), organizational climate (Argyris, 1964), and supervisory style (Likert, 1961).Recently, participation in organizational decision making has emerged in relation to level of satisfaction. Lack of participation has been recognized as one of the most frequently expressed sources of dissatisfaction or frustration of these organizational members. Data presented by Sharma (1955), Belasco and Alutto (1971), and Findley (1968), indicated the centrality of participation in organizational decision making for teachers. Stinnett, Kleinman and Ware (1967) further argued that teacher militancy, in part, was a reflection of this increased desire for participation.
