Özet
This research aims to reveal the
relationship between teachers' perceptions of alienation at schools and in
terms of weakness, meaninglessness, isolation and alienation at schools, their
perceptions of school culture with support, success, bureaucratic and task
culture. The research employed correlational design which is one of the
quantitative research approaches. The sample of the research consists of 481
teachers determined by random sampling method. Research data were obtained by
using the 'Work Alienation Scale' and 'School Culture Scale'. While analyzing
the data, linear correlation and multiple regression analyzes were used. The
data obtained as a result of the research were examined, it was concluded that
there was a significant relationship between teachers' alienation levels and
school culture. Success, support and duty culture, which are the
sub-dimensions of school culture, predicts the level of weakness,
meaninglessness and isolation, which are the sub-dimensions of alienation at
school. Bureaucratic culture, which is the sub-dimension of school culture,
predicts the level of weakness, meaninglessness and isolation of alienation at
school. According to the results of the research, it is possible to state that
strengthening the school culture will decrease the alienation levels of
teachers at schools.
