Keywords:
Administrator leadership, conceptual role, organizational commitment, job satisfaction and private school teacher turnoverAbstract
The objectives of this research were to study and to propose a causal model of factors affecting private school teacher turnover. A sample of 718 was selected by means of multi-stage random sampling from teachers of general education private schools. The instrument used to collect the data was a set of questionnaires constructed by the researcher. The data from 611 usable questionnaire returns were analyzed by means of descriptive statistics and analyses of causal factor models by LISREL.
The major findings were as follows. The proposed causal model was consistent with the theory because the relative chi-square ratio (χ2/df) =0.27, goodness of fit indicators (GFI) =1.00, adjusted goodness of fit indicators (AGFI) =0.99, standardized RMR=0.018, CFI=1.00, RMSEA=0.00. All of the variables affected private school teacher turnover. The variables of administration directly affected private school teacher turnover at .05 level of significance were: administrator leadership, conceptual role, organizational commitment, and job satisfaction. The organizational commitment was negatively correlated with the private school teacher turnover. The administrator leadership, the conceptual role and the job satisfaction had a positive relationship with the private school teacher turnover. It showed that the administrator leadership and the conceptual role have little influence on the private school teacher turnover. The job satisfaction had a negative influence with the private school teacher turnover through their influence on organizational commitment.
