Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationships between organizational structure and organizational health according to the perceptions of primary school teachers. For this purpose, it was examined that the relationships between primary schools’ structural properties and organizational health and its dimensions; whether structural properties affect organizational health and its dimensions. Selected by proportional cluster sampling, a total of 431 teachers working at the primary schools in centre of Denizli participated to the study. The data was collected by “Primary Schools Structural Properties Inventory” developed by the researchers and “Organizational Health Inventory” developed by Akbaba (1997). The data was analyzed by using the Sperman rho correlation tests and logistic regression analysis. According to the results, there is a positive relationship between complexity, formalization and organizational health; and negative relationship between centralization and organizational health.

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı, ilköğretim okulu öğretmenlerinin algılarına göre örgütsel yapı ile örgüt sağlığı arasındaki ilişkileri incelemektir. Bu amaçla, ilköğretim okullarının yapısal özellikleri ile örgüt sağlığı ve boyutları arasındaki ilişkilere, yapısal özelliklerin örgüt sağlığı ve boyutlarını etkileyip etkilemediğine bakılmıştır. Tarama modeli ve nicel yöntemlerin kullanıldığı araştırmanın örneklemi, Denizli il merkezindeki ilköğretim okullarında çalışan ve oranlı küme örneklemi yoluyla seçilen 431 öğretmenden oluşmaktadır. Araştırmanın verileri, araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen “Yapısal Özellikler Ölçeği” ve Akbaba (1997) tarafından geliştirilen “Örgüt Sağlığı Ölçeği” aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Araştırmanın alt problemlerinin çözümlenmesinde Sperman’s rho korelasyon testleri ve lojistik regresyon analizinden yararlanılmıştır. Analizler sonucu elde edilen bulgulara göre, karmaşıklık ve formalleşme özellikleri örgüt sağlığı ile pozitif yönde, merkezileşme ise negatif yönde ilişkili çıkmıştır. Bir diğer sonuca göre, öğretmenlerin okullarındaki karmaşıklık ve formalleşme özelliklerine ilişkin algıları, okullarını sağlıklı ya da sağlıksız olarak algılamalarında etkilidir.
