Abstract
The purpose of this research was to determine the ethical leadership behaviours of school administrators and organizational commitment of teachers. The study was a relational research model. The study was consisted of 590 branch teachers working in the secondary schools which are located in both Siirt center and its districts in 2009-2010. Ethical Leadership Scale was used to determine the principals' ethical leadership behaviours according to teachers’ point of view. In addition ‘Organizational Commitment’ scale developed by Balay (2000b) was also used to determine the organizational commitment levels of teachers. The result of the study indicated that there is negative and low relation between organizational commitment of teachers in terms of adaptation in respect to practices related to all dimensions of ethical leadership behaviours of school administrations. Also, there is a positive and medium level relation between the ethical leadership sub-dimensions such as tolerance, justice, responsibility, democracy and teachers’ identification commitment. Regression analysis indicated that the responsibility sub-dimension of ethical leadership behaviour positively predicted the identification commitment.
