摘要:This study aimed to determine the organizational cynicism levels of teachers working in public and private secondary schools in Turkey in terms of various variables. In this descriptive study based general survey model, data were collected by the Organizational Cynicism Scale (OCS). The sample of this study was determined by using "cluster sampling" method and it included a total of 262 teachers; 182 teachers for public secondary schools and 80 teachers for private secondary schools in Diyarbakir. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, One-Way Variance Analysis (ANOVA) and Kruskal-Wallis test. The findings of the study revealed that the overall level of organizational cynicism for teachers was found at 'Somewhat Agree' level. In addition, school type, gender, seniority and level of education were found as sources of significant differences. Teachers in public secondary schools and male teachers have higher means than their counterparts. Cynicism levels increase as the years pass and tend to decrease especially after a seniority of 15 years. Based on these findings, in-service training sessions to reduce possible causes for organizational cynicism can be organized for school administrators and teachers in public and private schools.
