Abstract

This study aimed to develop a valid and reliable measurement tool to determine teachers' perceptions of their social identity and construct a mediation model to measure their perceptions of power distance and organizational politics. The scale development process followed established steps, including a comprehensive literature review, item pool generation, expert review, and pilot testing. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were conducted to assess the validity of the scale, and reliability was determined via Cronbach's alpha. The EFA results revealed a ten-item single-factor structure, with factor loadings ranging from 0.667 to 0.828. The item‒total correlation coefficients ranged from 0.673 to 0.828, and the difference between the lower and upper 27% of the groups was statistically significant. The CFA confirmed the factor structure obtained from the EFA with excellent fit criteria (X2/df=1.243, RMSEA=0.024). Cronbach's alpha reliability analysis indicated high internal consistency (α=.906). The Teachers' Social Identity Scale is a valid and reliable instrument for understanding teachers' social relationships and professional performance. Teachers' social identity perceptions partially mediated the relationship between cultural value perceptions and organizational politics, with the bootstrapping process confirming that this indirect effect was statistically significant. The scale contributes to the literature on social identity in educational settings and aids in understanding the psychological structure of educational environments and the behaviors shaping them.

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı öğretmenlerin sosyal kimliklerine ilişkin algılarını belirlemek için geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçüm aracı geliştirmek ve güç mesafesi ile örgütsel politikalara ilişkin algılarını ölçmek için bir aracılık modeli kurmaktır. Ölçek geliştirme süreci kapsamlı bir literatür taraması, madde havuzu oluşturma, uzman incelemesi ve pilot uygulama gibi belirlenmiş adımları izlemiştir. Ölçeğin geçerliliğini değerlendirmek için keşfedici faktör analizi (AFA) ve doğrulayıcı faktör analizi (DFA) yürütülmüş ve güvenirliği Cronbach'ın alfa ile belirlenmiştir. AFA sonuçları, faktör yüklerinin 0,667 ile 0,828 arasında değiştiği on maddelik tek faktörlü bir yapı ortaya koymuştur. Madde-toplam korelasyon katsayıları 0,673 ile 0,828 arasında değişmiş ve grupların alt ve üst %27'si arasındaki fark istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulunmuştur. DFA, AFA'dan elde edilen faktör yapısını mükemmel uyum ölçütleriyle (X2/df=1,243, RMSEA=0,024) doğrulamıştır. Cronbach'ın alfa güvenilirlik analizi yüksek iç tutarlılık (α=.906) gösterdi. Öğretmenlerin Sosyal Kimlik Ölçeği, öğretmenlerin sosyal ilişkilerini ve mesleki performanslarını anlamak için geçerli ve güvenilir bir araçtır. Öğretmenlerin sosyal kimlik algıları, kültürel değer algıları ile örgütsel politikalar arasındaki ilişkiye kısmen aracılık etti ve önyükleme süreci bu dolaylı etkinin istatistiksel olarak anlamlı olduğunu doğruladı. Ölçek, eğitim ortamlarındaki sosyal kimlik literatürüne katkıda bulunur ve eğitim ortamlarının psikolojik yapısını ve onları şekillendiren davranışları anlamaya yardımcı olur.
