Abstract
The objectives of this study included to study the appropriateness of indicators for selection in the developed model, to examine the fitness of the developed model, and to verify the factor loading value of major components, sub-components, and indicators, respectively. Sample included 2,359 secondary school principals under the jurisdiction of the Office of the Basic Education Commission. Collecting data using a set of rating scale questionnaires were derived from 860 randomly selected proportional random sampling. Data were analyzed by using statistical program and AMOS program. The findings were corresponded to the following hypotheses: (a) The 62 indicators were suitable for the criteria as average equal to or higher than 3.00 and distribution coefficients equal to or less than 20% which were selected in the model, (b) The developed models were fitted with empirical data according to the value of relative Chi-square (CMIN/DF), root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA), goodness-of-fit index (GFI) adjusted goodness-fit index (AGFI), comparative fit index (CFI), and normed fit index (NFI) in accordance with the criteria from first and second order of confirmative factor analysis, and (c) the major components had factor loading ranged from 1.00 to 1.28, which were higher than the criterion at 0.70. The minor components had factor loading between 0.83 and 1.28. The indicators had factor loading ranged from 0.88 to 1.16, which are higher than the criterion as 0.30, respectively.
Highlights
1.1 Research ProblemUnder the pattern of educational change in the current era of Thai education management and in the middle of the stream, the world is evolving named globalization, which is subject to competitive conditions to create an advantage, the commitment of the fast, violent and diverse society
We proposed the following hypothesis; (a) The indicators were appropriate for the structural relationship model which were the sustainable leadership indicator for secondary school administrators
Indicators used in this study composed of 62 indicators which were appropriate according to the criteria in all models
Summary
Under the pattern of educational change in the current era of Thai education management and in the middle of the stream, the world is evolving named globalization, which is subject to competitive conditions to create an advantage, the commitment of the fast, violent and diverse society. The new management focuses on decentralization to ensure the most flexible and independent school administration, along with the emphasis on good governance (Office of the Secretary of the Education Council, 2011). The importance of developing good leaders and leadership development can be seen because the leadership of education has a variety of academic views such as leadership style including behavioral leadership, situational leadership, change leadership, effective leadership, and team leadership for the 21st century
