Learning Organization
Learning organization stands out as one of the con-
cepts, which have been emphasized and discussed
in accordance with the changes undergoing in re-
cent years in the field of management. Learning
organization is an organization that continuously
encourages, maintains employee development,
provides opportunities to learn and develop, and
considers learning as an investment, which aims to
increase the success and capacity of the organiza-
tion (Celep, 2004). Learning organizations, as the
places where employees try to achieve their aims
through full commitment (Hoy & Miskel, 2010)
differ from other organizations with their quality
of learning (Yücel, 2007). The purpose of learning
organization as a management mentality is to build
a structure that can learn and manage by itself (Tur-

Abstract
In this study, it was tried to determine to what degree the learning organization predicted organizational com-
mitment according to primary school teachers’ perceptions. Descriptive survey model was used in this study
and 429 teachers were chosen among 2387 teachers who worked in primary schools in Van in 2010-2011 educa-
tion years and were included in the sample. Regression analysis was applied in the data analysis of the study.
Durbin-Watson test was used to determine whether there is autocorrelation in the model. It was found that
there was a significant relationship between organizational commitment dimensions and the dimensions of
learning organization perception scale. Maximum three dimensions of the learning organization scale were
included in the model. These were shared vision, team learning, and personal mastery. When shared vision and
team learning are the predictors of compliance dimension, they explain 18% of compliance commitment. When
shared vision, team learning and personal mastery are predictors of identification dimension, they explain 36%
of identification commitment. When team learning and shared vision were the predictors of internalization di-
mension, they explain 25% of internalization commitment. It was seen that there was a low negative relationship
between the dimensions of the learning organization and compliance dimension of organizational commitment;
however, there was a positive but low relationship between identification and internalization dimensions.

an, Karadağ, & Bektaş, 20011). Therefore, learning
organization has a quality that can learn from its
mistakes and experiences and consider research
and learning as the dynamo of transformation and
development (Balcı, 2000).
According to Senge (1993), learning organization
has five main characteristics such as systems think-
ing, personal mastery, mental models, shared vision
and team learning, which are vitally significant for
each other. The fact that organizations’ transform-
ing into a learning organization primarily starts
with their employees’ learning (Özalp, Uzun, & Yel-
kikalan, 1998; Yalçın & Ay, 2011). In this context,
organizational learning takes the greatest support
from organizational commitment levels of employ-
ees who have the intellectual power in enabling the
transformation of individual knowledge into orga-
nizational knowledge (Akpınar, 2007).
Organizational Commitment
Organizational commitment, which explains the
psychological relationship of the employee with the
organization, is discussed in different concepts by
the researchers. In this study, organizational com-
mitment model was used, which O’ Reilly III and
Chatman (1986) examined the organizational com-
mitment in three dimensions such as compliance,
identification and internalization.
Although researchers have different approaches to-
wards organizational commitment, O’Reilly III and
Chatman’s (1986) compliance commitment, Allen
and Meyer’s (1990) continuity commitment, Mowday,
Koberg, and McArthur’s (1984) behavioural commit-
ment and Katz and Khan’s (1977) affective commit-
ment show similarities in terms of employee’s decla-
ration of commitment to the organization for his/her
benefits. Once again, O’Reilly III and Chatman’s inter-
nalization commitment, Allen and Meyer’s emotional
commitment Mowday et al.’s attitude commitment
and Katz and Khan’s affective commitment show sim-
ilarities in terms of employee’s declaration of commit-
ment to organization’s objectives and values, not for
their own benefits (Erdem, 2010).
The employees who are committed to the organiza-
tion make more efforts to achieve the duties and the
targets, spend more time in the organization, have
more positive relationships with the organization
(Balay, 2000b; Şama & Kolamaz, 2011) and therefore,
theirperformancesincrease(Özdevecioğlu,2003)and
they make positive contributions to the organization’s
product and service quality (Doğan & Kılıç, 2007).
Organizational commitment is affecting employees’
performance in a positive way in reaching organiza-
tions’ goals and maintain their activities and assets;
furthermore, it decreases the unwanted behaviours
such as absenteeism, frequent tardiness (Ünal, 2011)
and leaving work early (Sabuncuoğlu, 2007).
Studies have shown that there is a relationship
among all these concepts: organizational commit-
ment and job satisfaction (Çekmecelioğlu, 2011;
Mahmutoğlu, 2007), the quality of working life
(Erdem, 2008), organization culture (Demir & Öz-
türk, 2011; Sezgin, 2010), organizational climate
(Kılıçoğlu, 2010; Yüceler, 2009), organizational
health (Korkmaz, 2011), organizational support
(Köse & Gönüllüoğlu, 2010), organizational com-
munication (Ada, Alver, & Atlı, 2008), organi-
zational justice (İmamoğlu, 2011), interactionist
leadership (Yavuz & Tokmak, 2009), supportive
and constructive leadership characteristics of the
administrators (Şama & Kolamaz, 2011), interac-
tionist and transformative leadership behaviours
(Buluç, 2009), cultural leadership roles (Uygur &
Yıldırım, 2011), bureaucratization in schools (Tü-
zel, 2010), personal characteristics of the employ-
ees (Erdoğmuş, 2006; Şengül, 2008), employees’
performance (Sarıkaya, 2011). It was thought that
there is a similar relationship between learning or-
ganization and organizational commitment since
most of the concepts related to organizational com-
mitment affect learning organization.
The Relationship between Learning Organiza-
tion and Organizational Commitment
Elementary schools are the foundation of education
system. Therefore, it is vital for elementary school
teachers to have organizational commitment, which
enables them to adopt the school’s goals and values
and have a strong faith for them and also to have a
strong motivation to remain in the system and more-
over to use all their potentials for the school and
make more effort than expected. In this respect, it is
expected from schools to give importance to organi-
zational learning and make it a part of school culture
(Çelik, 1996), continuously improve learning process
for the teachers and for other personnel (Töremen,
2001) and organize and evaluate the information ob-
tained (Çakır & Yükseltürk, 2010).
When it is taken into consideration that in an or-
ganization, learning begins with the individual and
then spreads to the whole organization, organiza-
tions can only maintain continuity through their
employees’ commitment, therefore they can build
an organizational memory and then transform into

a learning organization (Atak, 2009). On the other
hand, the expectations about the fact that the effi-
ciency of the employees who have job satisfaction
is higher make the organizational commitment an
issue which is becoming more and more important
for the organizations (Aslan, 2008; Demir & Öz-
türk, 2011; İnce & Gül, 2005; Özdevecioğlu, 2003).
While on the one hand, organizations make efforts
to be a learning organization, on the other hand, their
need to build their employees’ commitment to the
organization increases the interest/attention towards
these two issues (Akpınar, 2007; Atak, 2009; Çöl &
Ardıç, 2008). However, it is seen there is a limited
number of studies that can manifest the relationship
between learning organization and organizational
commitment in elementary education. Therefore,
this study focuses on determining the relationship
between learning organization and organizational
commitment according to teachers’ perceptions.
The Objective/Purpose
The general purpose of the study is to determine to
what degree the learning organization predict orga-
nizational commitment according to teachers’ per-
ceptions. To be able to reach this general purpose,
these questions tried to be answered:
1. What is the learning organization perception in
elementary education in terms of teachers?
2. What is the level of organizational commitment
of teachers in elementary education?
3. To what degree do the sub-dimensions of learn-
ing organization such as personal mastery, mental
models, shared vision, system thinking and team
learning predict the sub-dimensions of organiza-
tional commitment such as compliance, identifica-
tion and internalization?
Method
In this screening model study, to what degree the
learning organization predict organizational com-
mitment is examined according to the perceptions
of the teachers who work in elementary schools.
Population and Sample
The target population of the study is 2387 teach-
ers who worked in state primary schools in Van
Municipality during 2010-2011 education years.
According to the Directive on Education Zones
and Education Boards (The Ministry of National
Education), five education zones could be formed
in city centres and central districts considering
the factors such as types of schools, the number
of students, equipment in schools, the capacity of
the other facilities, transportation facility and re-
liability, geographical integrity, communication
and coordination facilities (Milli Eğitim Bakanlığı
[MEB], 1999). Van central district was divided into
five education zones during the education years of
2010-2011. Considering the difficulty of reaching
all the teachers that existed in the population, three
elementary state schools were randomly chosen
from each education zone to represent the popu-
lation according to their zones and 429 teachers in
fifteen schools in these three zones were included in
the sample. Nearly 46% of the participant teachers
were females and 54% of them were males. While
57% of the participants were class teachers, 43%
of them were branch teachers. 36% of the teachers
who participated in the study had 1-5 years work
experience, 32% of them had 6-10 years experience
and 32% had 11 and more years work experience.
Data Collection Tools
In the study, as data collection tool, “Learning Or-
ganization Perception Scale” developed by Güçlü
and Türkoğlu (2003) and “Organizational Commit-
ment Scale” developed by Balay (2000a) were used
after taking permissions. Besides, “Personal Infor-
mation Form” was developed with the purpose of
getting information about the personal characteris-
tics of the teachers.
Learning organization perception scale is composed
of 42 items and 5 sub-dimensions such as personal
mastery, mental models, shared vision, system think-
ing and team learning. The structure validity and reli-
ability of the scale, which were applied to elementary
school teachers, were measured by Güçlü and Türkoğ-
lu (2003). Sperman-Brown and Cronbach Alfa values
were examined for the reliability of the scale; however,
expert opinions were asked for the validity of the scale.
Sperman-Brown test of the scale was found as .93 and
Cronbach Alfa test was found as .97.
Organizational commitment scale is composed of
24 items and 3 sub-dimensions such as compliance,
identification and internalization. Balay (2000a)
applied the scale on the high school teachers; there-
fore, the validity and reliability studies of the scale
were done again to see whether it differs on elemen-
tary school teachers. The result of the analysis done
is similar to Balay’s validity and reliability study.
The items, which existed in the scale, were collected
E D U C A T I O N A L S C I E N C E S : T H E O R Y & P R A C T I C E
1530
under three factors as in Balay’s scale and the order
of the items in the factor did not change. It was seen
that load factor values of the items range between
.40 and .80. Cronbach Alfa values of the scale were
found as .92 for the first factor, .90 for the second
factor and .75 for the third factor.
Data Collection and Analysis
The scales of the study were handed out to the teach-
ers in person by the researchers and they were col-
lected by the researchers themselves. The researchers
distributed the scale to 450 teachers but ten scales
were not returned and 11 scales were not evaluat-
ed due to incomplete and incorrect responses. 429
scales were evaluated in total. In the study, percent-
age and frequency were used for the analysis of the
personal information. Arithmetic average/mean
and standard deviation values were found for item
analyses of elementary school teachers’ perceptions
of learning organization and organizational com-
mitment. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis
was done to determine whether the dimensions of
learning organization perceptions is a predictor of
the dimensions of organizational commitment.
Multiple regression models were applied between
the dimensions of learning organization perceptions
and the dimensions of organizational commitment.
“Stepwise selection and adding variables processes
were done in multiple regression model. This process
involves adding each variable to the model gradually
and being evaluated in the model. If the variable con-
tributes to the model, it remains. If it did not signifi-
cantly contribute to the model, it is dropped. Thus, the
model is explained with the help of the least number of
variables.Durbin-Watsontestshowswhetherthereisa
autocorrelation in our model. Usually a Durbin-Wat-
son test value ranging between 1,5 and 2,5 shows that
there is no autocorrelation (Kalaycı, 2005).
Results
Findings about Learning Organization Perceptions
While elementary school teachers strongly agreed
on team learning (X =3.49), which is the sub-di-
mension of learning organization, they strongly
disagreed on personal mastery (X =3.10). Teachers
“usually” agreed to sub dimensions of team learn-
ing (X =3.49; ss=0.64) and mental models (X =3.45;
ss=0.71), they “sometimes” agreed to other sub-di-
mensions such as shared vision (X =3.30; ss=0.77),
system thinking (X =3.22; ss=0.70) and personal
mastery (X =3.10; ss=0.71).
Findings about Organizational Commitment
Elementary school teachers strongly agreed on in-
ternalization (X =3.52) sub-dimension of organiza-
tional commitment and they strongly disagreed on
compliance (X =2.05) sub-dimension. While teach-
ers “strongly” agreed on internalization sub-dimen-
sion (X =3.52; ss=0.84), they “somewhat” agreed
on identification sub-dimension (X =2.97; ss=0.99)
and they “slightly” agreed on compliance sub-di-
mension (X =2.05; ss=0.73).
Findings about Learning Organization Percep-
tions Predict Organizational Commitment
It was seen that there is a significant relationship
between sub-dimensions “shared vision” and “team
learning” of learning organization and compliance
dimension (F(2,426)
=46.834 p< ,005). The other vari-
ables, personal mastery, mental models and system
thinking are not included in the model, as they
did not significantly contribute to the model. First
shared vision and then team learning are included
in the model. When we evaluated shared vision and
team learning together, they explain Rd
²= 17.6% of
the model. It means that the shared vision and team
learning values explain 17.6% of compliance di-
mension. Adjusted Rd
² value was examined here be-
cause whether relevant or irrelevant any variables,
which are added in the model increase R2 value.
Adjusted R2 value increases according to added
variables’ relevance to the model. When t-test re-
sults were examined (t (2,426)
=-2,904 p<,005), it was
seen that there is a significant relationship between
shared vision, team learning and compliance di-
mension. When the relationship between variables
and compliance dimension were examined (shared
vision partial r =, 405; team learning partial r=, 364)
a negative low relationship was found. The constant
value in the model is 29.294. When coefficient (B)
values were examined, one-unit increase in shared
vision causes a decrease of 0.20 in compliance and
one-unit increase in team learning leads to a de-
crease of 0.16 in compliance. When Durbin-Wat-
son test (1.82) was examined, it was seen that there
is not autocorrelation in our model.
There is a significant relationship between identifi-
cation dimension and learning organization’s sub-di-
mensions, shared vision, team learning and personal
mastery (F (3,425)
=82,545 p<,001). Other variables,
mental models and system thinking could not be
added to the model, as they did not significantly con-
tribute to the model. When shared vision and team
learning were evaluated, they explained Rd
²= 36.4%
ERDEM, UÇAR / Learning Organization Perceptions in Elementary Education in terms of Teachers and the Effect of...
1531
of the model. When t-test in the model was exam-
ined, there is a significant relationship between iden-
tification dimension and sub-dimensions, shared
vision, team learning and personal mastery respec-
tively. When partial correlations between identifica-
tion and the variables were examined (shared vision
r=, 564; team learning r=, 503; personal mastery r=,
513), a moderate positive relationship could be seen.
The constant value in the model is -1, 10. When co-
efficient (B) values were examined, one-unit increase
in shared vision can lead to an increase of 0.24 in
identification, one-unit increase in team learning can
cause an increase of 0.22 in identification. Besides,
one-unit increase in personal mastery can result in
an increase of 0.37 in identification. As it could be
seen, personal mastery affects identification more
than the other variables.
It was seen that there is a significant relationship
between internalization and shared vision and
team learning as the sub-dimensions of learning
organization (F(2,426)
=15.724 p<,001). Other vari-
ables, personal mastery, mental models and system
thinking could not be added to the model, as they
did not contribute to the model significantly. When
we evaluated the two variables (shared vision and
team learning) together, they explained Rd
²=25%.
It means that team learning and shared vision ex-
plain 25% of the model. When t-test in the model
was examined (t(2,426)
=3,965 p<,001), it can be seen
that there is a significant relationship between in-
ternalization and both team learning and shared
vision in separately. Constant value in the model is
10, 802. When coefficient (B) values were examined,
one-unit increase can cause an increase of 0.39 in in-
ternalization; one-unit increase in shared vision can
lead to an increase of 0.20 in internalization. When
partial correlations between the variables and in-
ternalization were examined (team learning partial
r=, 480; shared vision partial r=, 443), it can be seen
there is an almost moderate positive relationship.
When Durbin Watson test was examined (1.92), it
can be seen there is no autocorrelation in the model.
Conclusion and the Discussion
In personal mastery dimension, elementary school
teachers remarked that the individuals who want
improve themselves are usually valued in their
schools; however, they stated that written materials
necessary for the improvement of the teachers are
sometimes provided. In mental models dimension,
they stated that they usually feel comfortable to
share their opinions with the people around them
in their schools and declared that sometimes im-
provements are made with a purpose of develop-
ment. In shared vision dimension, teachers stated
that the objectives of their organization are usu-
ally established clearly and accurately; sometimes
implementations/applications in their schools are
put into practice after their opinions are asked
and sometimes plans in their schools are taken
into consideration before problems arise not after
problems occurred. In team learning dimension,
teachers stated that they are usually eager to take
responsibility in a team and would be pleased to
take part in the duty; and they stated that activities
in their schools sometimes are carried out through
teamwork. Similar results were found in the studies,
which were done by Güçlü and Türkoğlu (2003),
Banoğlu (2009) and Kılıç (2009).
While the teachers stated that team learning and
mental models are usually included in their schools,
they said that personal mastery of the teachers is
sometimes improved and sometimes it was acted
according to system thinking. This finding coin-
cides with the results of the study done by Güçlü
and Türkoğlu (2003). However, it is not consistent
with the results of the studies done by Bal (2011),
Subaş (2010), Banoğlu (2009), Kılıç (2009), Alp
(2007) and Güleş (2007).
In the compliance dimension of organizational
commitment, elementary school teachers did not
agree that their attempts for student achievement
are only within the course hours and they feel un-
comfortable about the efforts of the management to
attach them to the school. In identification dimen-
sion, while the teachers strongly agreed that they
are proud of becoming a member of their schools,
they somewhat agreed that their schools provide
opportunities to follow changes and latest devel-
opments about their professions. In internalization
dimension, while the teachers strongly agreed that
they consider their schools’ future and they will
make every kind of sacrifices for their schools’ ben-
efit, they somewhat agreed that they perceive their
schools’ priorities as their priorities and they spend
their time with the activities about their schools.
According to the results of the study, it was seen that
organizational commitment levels of teachers are the
highest in internalization dimension and identifica-
tion and compliance dimensions follow this in order.
Similarly, Balay (2000a), Sezer (2005), Erdem (2008)
and Uygur and Yıldırım (2011) found out that teach-
ers are highly committed in internalization dimen-
sion and they are slightly committed in compliance
dimension. These findings coincide with the findings
of Sezgin (2010), Sarıkaya (2011) and Tüzel (2010)
E D U C A T I O N A L S C I E N C E S : T H E O R Y & P R A C T I C E

who studied teachers’ commitment and concluded
that the levels of emotional commitment, which is
similar to internalization commitment is higher
compared to continuity commitment and norma-
tive commitment. However, they are not consistent
with Uğurlu’s (2009) results in which teachers are the
most committed in continuity dimension and slight-
ly committed in normative commitment. The same
inconsistency occurs in İmamoğlu’s (2011), study in
which the results showed that teachers are the most
committed in compliance dimension and the least
committed in identification commitment. On the
other hand, Çakır (2007) reached a conclusion in
his/her study that teachers are uncommitted in emo-
tional, continuity and normative sub-dimensions of
organizational commitment.
In the study, internalization commitment is found
higher than others are. Internalization commitment
can be seen positive in one angle but can be seen
negative from another angle. The positive side is that
it shows that there is compliance between the indi-
vidual and organizational values. However, at the
same time, it can show the individual’s commitment
to the school in the level of a workaholic. Workahol-
ism is not perceived positively in working life be-
cause workaholism affect the balance between per-
sonal life and working life in a negative way (Akın &
Oğuz, 2010; Bardakçı & Baloğlu, 2012).
When regression analysis was examined, it was seen
there is a negative low relationship between the di-
mensions of learning organization perception and
compliance dimension of organizational commit-
ment. Shared vision and team learning explained
18% of compliance dimension. In the identification
dimension of organizational commitment, three
variables were added to the regression model. These
are shared vision, team learning and personal mas-
tery variables. That the inclusion of internalization,
shared vision, team learning and personal mastery
variables affected in a higher level (this explained
36% of the model) compared to other variables is
an expected finding. In internalization dimension,
first team learning and then shared vision variables
were added to the model. A positive but low rela-
tionship was found between these variables and
internalization. The finding show parallelism with
the results of the studies done by other researchers
(Erdem, 2008; İmamoğlu, 2011; Şama & Kolamaz,
2011; Uygur & Yıldırım, 2011).
In this study, maximum three variables were added
to the model. The variables added to the model were
shared vision, team learning and personal mastery.
Mental models and system thinking were never
added to the model. These variables mostly predict
the identification dimension and they predict com-
pliance dimension the least. While a negative low
relationship was seen between compliance dimen-
sion and the dimensions of learning organization,
positive but a low relationship was seen between
identification, internalization and other variables.
It is seen that remarkable research results were
obtained about teachers’ organizational commit-
ment and related issues in the body of the litera-
ture (Çakır, 2007; Kılıçoğlu, 2010; Korkmaz, 2011;
Sarıkaya, 2011; Sezgin, 2010; Uğurlu, 2009; Tüzel,
2010). The fact that the schools conduct support-
ive activities and establish an appropriate organi-
zational structure for this is effective in determin-
ing teachers’ organizational commitment. Morgan
(1998) stated that realizing a problem is usually the
first step that leads to the solution. In this context,
identifying and eliminating the obstacles that pre-
vent organizational learning and organizational
commitment from developing will be an import-
ant step to provide productivity/efficiency of these
schools. When the results of the study were tak-
en into consideration, it is necessary to share the
school’s vision, to do the teamwork and to provide
teachers’ personal development to increase the or-
ganizational commitment in schools in terms of
learning organization. To be able to create a shared
school vision, it is necessary to discuss the vision
with the teachers and to organize workshops so the
vision needs to be introduced. Developing team-
work in schools will increase both the commitment
that the teachers have for each other and for the
school. Therefore, teachers need to acquire team-
work culture and applied seminars about teamwork
and anything related to this issue need to be given
first to the managers then to the teachers. However,
providing teachers’ personal development, create
environments to reveal their talents, organize sem-
inars, giving in-service training; guiding them to
new fields in accordance with their talents will in-
crease their organizational commitment. All these
activities will increase teachers’ identification and
internalization commitments not their reluctant
attachments to the schools.

  • 1. Learning Organization Learning organization stands out as one of the con- cepts, which have been emphasized and discussed in accordance with the changes undergoing in re- cent years in the field of management. Learning organization is an organization that continuously encourages, maintains employee development, provides opportunities to learn and develop, and considers learning as an investment, which aims to increase the success and capacity of the organiza- tion (Celep, 2004). Learning organizations, as the places where employees try to achieve their aims through full commitment (Hoy & Miskel, 2010) differ from other organizations with their quality of learning (Yücel, 2007). The purpose of learning organization as a management mentality is to build a structure that can learn and manage by itself (Tur- * A part of this study is presented as a report in IV. International Congress of Education Research which was organized on 4-7 May 2012 in Yıldız Technical University. a Mustafa ERDEM, Ph.D., is an assistant professor of Educational Sciences. Work-life quality, culture of organization, favoritism, coaching, strategic planning, organizational loyalty, organizational trust, metaphor of organization and estrangement are among the subjects he studies on.

Abstract In this study, it was tried to determine to what degree the learning organization predicted organizational com- mitment according to primary school teachers’ perceptions. Descriptive survey model was used in this study and 429 teachers were chosen among 2387 teachers who worked in primary schools in Van in 2010-2011 educa- tion years and were included in the sample. Regression analysis was applied in the data analysis of the study. Durbin-Watson test was used to determine whether there is autocorrelation in the model. It was found that there was a significant relationship between organizational commitment dimensions and the dimensions of learning organization perception scale. Maximum three dimensions of the learning organization scale were included in the model. These were shared vision, team learning, and personal mastery. When shared vision and team learning are the predictors of compliance dimension, they explain 18% of compliance commitment. When shared vision, team learning and personal mastery are predictors of identification dimension, they explain 36% of identification commitment. When team learning and shared vision were the predictors of internalization di- mension, they explain 25% of internalization commitment. It was seen that there was a low negative relationship between the dimensions of the learning organization and compliance dimension of organizational commitment; however, there was a positive but low relationship between identification and internalization dimensions.

Therefore, learning organization has a quality that can learn from its mistakes and experiences and consider research and learning as the dynamo of transformation and development (Balcı, 2000). According to Senge (1993), learning organization has five main characteristics such as systems think- ing, personal mastery, mental models, shared vision and team learning, which are vitally significant for each other. The fact that organizations’ transform- ing into a learning organization primarily starts with their employees’ learning (Özalp, Uzun, & Yel- kikalan, 1998; Yalçın & Ay, 2011). In this context, organizational learning takes the greatest support from organizational commitment levels of employ- ees who have the intellectual power in enabling the transformation of individual knowledge into orga- nizational knowledge (Akpınar, 2007). Organizational Commitment Organizational commitment, which explains the psychological relationship of the employee with the organization, is discussed in different concepts by the researchers. In this study, organizational com- mitment model was used, which O’ Reilly III and Chatman (1986) examined the organizational com- mitment in three dimensions such as compliance, identification and internalization. Although researchers have different approaches to- wards organizational commitment, O’Reilly III and Chatman’s (1986) compliance commitment, Allen and Meyer’s (1990) continuity commitment, Mowday, Koberg, and McArthur’s (1984) behavioural commit- ment and Katz and Khan’s (1977) affective commit- ment show similarities in terms of employee’s decla- ration of commitment to the organization for his/her benefits. Once again, O’Reilly III and Chatman’s inter- nalization commitment, Allen and Meyer’s emotional commitment Mowday et al.’s attitude commitment and Katz and Khan’s affective commitment show sim- ilarities in terms of employee’s declaration of commit- ment to organization’s objectives and values, not for their own benefits (Erdem, 2010). The employees who are committed to the organiza- tion make more efforts to achieve the duties and the targets, spend more time in the organization, have more positive relationships with the organization (Balay, 2000b; Şama & Kolamaz, 2011) and therefore, theirperformancesincrease(Özdevecioğlu,2003)and they make positive contributions to the organization’s product and service quality (Doğan & Kılıç, 2007). Organizational commitment is affecting employees’ performance in a positive way in reaching organiza- tions’ goals and maintain their activities and assets; furthermore, it decreases the unwanted behaviours such as absenteeism, frequent tardiness (Ünal, 2011) and leaving work early (Sabuncuoğlu, 2007). Studies have shown that there is a relationship among all these concepts: organizational commit- ment and job satisfaction (Çekmecelioğlu, 2011; Mahmutoğlu, 2007), the quality of working life (Erdem, 2008), organization culture (Demir & Öz- türk, 2011; Sezgin, 2010), organizational climate (Kılıçoğlu, 2010; Yüceler, 2009), organizational health (Korkmaz, 2011), organizational support (Köse & Gönüllüoğlu, 2010), organizational com- munication (Ada, Alver, & Atlı, 2008), organi- zational justice (İmamoğlu, 2011), interactionist leadership (Yavuz & Tokmak, 2009), supportive and constructive leadership characteristics of the administrators (Şama & Kolamaz, 2011), interac- tionist and transformative leadership behaviours (Buluç, 2009), cultural leadership roles (Uygur & Yıldırım, 2011), bureaucratization in schools (Tü- zel, 2010), personal characteristics of the employ- ees (Erdoğmuş, 2006; Şengül, 2008), employees’ performance (Sarıkaya, 2011). It was thought that there is a similar relationship between learning or- ganization and organizational commitment since most of the concepts related to organizational com- mitment affect learning organization. The Relationship between Learning Organiza- tion and Organizational Commitment Elementary schools are the foundation of education system. Therefore, it is vital for elementary school teachers to have organizational commitment, which enables them to adopt the school’s goals and values and have a strong faith for them and also to have a strong motivation to remain in the system and more- over to use all their potentials for the school and make more effort than expected. In this respect, it is expected from schools to give importance to organi- zational learning and make it a part of school culture (Çelik, 1996), continuously improve learning process for the teachers and for other personnel (Töremen, 2001) and organize and evaluate the information ob- tained (Çakır & Yükseltürk, 2010). When it is taken into consideration that in an or- ganization, learning begins with the individual and then spreads to the whole organization, organiza- tions can only maintain continuity through their employees’ commitment, therefore they can build an organizational memory and then transform into

On the other hand, the expectations about the fact that the effi- ciency of the employees who have job satisfaction is higher make the organizational commitment an issue which is becoming more and more important for the organizations (Aslan, 2008; Demir & Öz- türk, 2011; İnce & Gül, 2005; Özdevecioğlu, 2003). While on the one hand, organizations make efforts to be a learning organization, on the other hand, their need to build their employees’ commitment to the organization increases the interest/attention towards these two issues (Akpınar, 2007; Atak, 2009; Çöl & Ardıç, 2008). However, it is seen there is a limited number of studies that can manifest the relationship between learning organization and organizational commitment in elementary education. Therefore, this study focuses on determining the relationship between learning organization and organizational commitment according to teachers’ perceptions. The Objective/Purpose The general purpose of the study is to determine to what degree the learning organization predict orga- nizational commitment according to teachers’ per- ceptions. To be able to reach this general purpose, these questions tried to be answered: 1. What is the learning organization perception in elementary education in terms of teachers? 2. What is the level of organizational commitment of teachers in elementary education? 3. To what degree do the sub-dimensions of learn- ing organization such as personal mastery, mental models, shared vision, system thinking and team learning predict the sub-dimensions of organiza- tional commitment such as compliance, identifica- tion and internalization? Method In this screening model study, to what degree the learning organization predict organizational com- mitment is examined according to the perceptions of the teachers who work in elementary schools. Population and Sample The target population of the study is 2387 teach- ers who worked in state primary schools in Van Municipality during 2010-2011 education years. According to the Directive on Education Zones and Education Boards (The Ministry of National Education), five education zones could be formed in city centres and central districts considering the factors such as types of schools, the number of students, equipment in schools, the capacity of the other facilities, transportation facility and re- liability, geographical integrity, communication and coordination facilities (Milli Eğitim Bakanlığı [MEB], 1999). Van central district was divided into five education zones during the education years of 2010-2011. Considering the difficulty of reaching all the teachers that existed in the population, three elementary state schools were randomly chosen from each education zone to represent the popu- lation according to their zones and 429 teachers in fifteen schools in these three zones were included in the sample. Nearly 46% of the participant teachers were females and 54% of them were males. While 57% of the participants were class teachers, 43% of them were branch teachers. 36% of the teachers who participated in the study had 1-5 years work experience, 32% of them had 6-10 years experience and 32% had 11 and more years work experience. Data Collection Tools In the study, as data collection tool, “Learning Or- ganization Perception Scale” developed by Güçlü and Türkoğlu (2003) and “Organizational Commit- ment Scale” developed by Balay (2000a) were used after taking permissions. Besides, “Personal Infor- mation Form” was developed with the purpose of getting information about the personal characteris- tics of the teachers. Learning organization perception scale is composed of 42 items and 5 sub-dimensions such as personal mastery, mental models, shared vision, system think- ing and team learning. The structure validity and reli- ability of the scale, which were applied to elementary school teachers, were measured by Güçlü and Türkoğ- lu (2003). Sperman-Brown and Cronbach Alfa values were examined for the reliability of the scale; however, expert opinions were asked for the validity of the scale. Sperman-Brown test of the scale was found as .93 and Cronbach Alfa test was found as .97. Organizational commitment scale is composed of 24 items and 3 sub-dimensions such as compliance, identification and internalization. Balay (2000a) applied the scale on the high school teachers; there- fore, the validity and reliability studies of the scale were done again to see whether it differs on elemen- tary school teachers. The result of the analysis done is similar to Balay’s validity and reliability study. The items, which existed in the scale, were collected
  • 4. E D U C A T I O N A L S C I E N C E S : T H E O R Y & P R A C T I C E 1530 under three factors as in Balay’s scale and the order of the items in the factor did not change. It was seen that load factor values of the items range between .40 and .80. Cronbach Alfa values of the scale were found as .92 for the first factor, .90 for the second factor and .75 for the third factor. Data Collection and Analysis The scales of the study were handed out to the teach- ers in person by the researchers and they were col- lected by the researchers themselves. The researchers distributed the scale to 450 teachers but ten scales were not returned and 11 scales were not evaluat- ed due to incomplete and incorrect responses. 429 scales were evaluated in total. In the study, percent- age and frequency were used for the analysis of the personal information. Arithmetic average/mean and standard deviation values were found for item analyses of elementary school teachers’ perceptions of learning organization and organizational com- mitment. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis was done to determine whether the dimensions of learning organization perceptions is a predictor of the dimensions of organizational commitment. Multiple regression models were applied between the dimensions of learning organization perceptions and the dimensions of organizational commitment. “Stepwise selection and adding variables processes were done in multiple regression model. This process involves adding each variable to the model gradually and being evaluated in the model. If the variable con- tributes to the model, it remains. If it did not signifi- cantly contribute to the model, it is dropped. Thus, the model is explained with the help of the least number of variables.Durbin-Watsontestshowswhetherthereisa autocorrelation in our model. Usually a Durbin-Wat- son test value ranging between 1,5 and 2,5 shows that there is no autocorrelation (Kalaycı, 2005). Results Findings about Learning Organization Perceptions While elementary school teachers strongly agreed on team learning (X =3.49), which is the sub-di- mension of learning organization, they strongly disagreed on personal mastery (X =3.10). Teachers “usually” agreed to sub dimensions of team learn- ing (X =3.49; ss=0.64) and mental models (X =3.45; ss=0.71), they “sometimes” agreed to other sub-di- mensions such as shared vision (X =3.30; ss=0.77), system thinking (X =3.22; ss=0.70) and personal mastery (X =3.10; ss=0.71). Findings about Organizational Commitment Elementary school teachers strongly agreed on in- ternalization (X =3.52) sub-dimension of organiza- tional commitment and they strongly disagreed on compliance (X =2.05) sub-dimension. While teach- ers “strongly” agreed on internalization sub-dimen- sion (X =3.52; ss=0.84), they “somewhat” agreed on identification sub-dimension (X =2.97; ss=0.99) and they “slightly” agreed on compliance sub-di- mension (X =2.05; ss=0.73). Findings about Learning Organization Percep- tions Predict Organizational Commitment It was seen that there is a significant relationship between sub-dimensions “shared vision” and “team learning” of learning organization and compliance dimension (F(2,426) =46.834 p< ,005). The other vari- ables, personal mastery, mental models and system thinking are not included in the model, as they did not significantly contribute to the model. First shared vision and then team learning are included in the model. When we evaluated shared vision and team learning together, they explain Rd ²= 17.6% of the model. It means that the shared vision and team learning values explain 17.6% of compliance di- mension. Adjusted Rd ² value was examined here be- cause whether relevant or irrelevant any variables, which are added in the model increase R2 value. Adjusted R2 value increases according to added variables’ relevance to the model. When t-test re- sults were examined (t (2,426) =-2,904 p<,005), it was seen that there is a significant relationship between shared vision, team learning and compliance di- mension. When the relationship between variables and compliance dimension were examined (shared vision partial r =, 405; team learning partial r=, 364) a negative low relationship was found. The constant value in the model is 29.294. When coefficient (B) values were examined, one-unit increase in shared vision causes a decrease of 0.20 in compliance and one-unit increase in team learning leads to a de- crease of 0.16 in compliance. When Durbin-Wat- son test (1.82) was examined, it was seen that there is not autocorrelation in our model. There is a significant relationship between identifi- cation dimension and learning organization’s sub-di- mensions, shared vision, team learning and personal mastery (F (3,425) =82,545 p<,001). Other variables, mental models and system thinking could not be added to the model, as they did not significantly con- tribute to the model. When shared vision and team learning were evaluated, they explained Rd ²= 36.4%
  • 5. ERDEM, UÇAR / Learning Organization Perceptions in Elementary Education in terms of Teachers and the Effect of... 1531 of the model. When t-test in the model was exam- ined, there is a significant relationship between iden- tification dimension and sub-dimensions, shared vision, team learning and personal mastery respec- tively. When partial correlations between identifica- tion and the variables were examined (shared vision r=, 564; team learning r=, 503; personal mastery r=, 513), a moderate positive relationship could be seen. The constant value in the model is -1, 10. When co- efficient (B) values were examined, one-unit increase in shared vision can lead to an increase of 0.24 in identification, one-unit increase in team learning can cause an increase of 0.22 in identification. Besides, one-unit increase in personal mastery can result in an increase of 0.37 in identification. As it could be seen, personal mastery affects identification more than the other variables. It was seen that there is a significant relationship between internalization and shared vision and team learning as the sub-dimensions of learning organization (F(2,426) =15.724 p<,001). Other vari- ables, personal mastery, mental models and system thinking could not be added to the model, as they did not contribute to the model significantly. When we evaluated the two variables (shared vision and team learning) together, they explained Rd ²=25%. It means that team learning and shared vision ex- plain 25% of the model. When t-test in the model was examined (t(2,426) =3,965 p<,001), it can be seen that there is a significant relationship between in- ternalization and both team learning and shared vision in separately. Constant value in the model is 10, 802. When coefficient (B) values were examined, one-unit increase can cause an increase of 0.39 in in- ternalization; one-unit increase in shared vision can lead to an increase of 0.20 in internalization. When partial correlations between the variables and in- ternalization were examined (team learning partial r=, 480; shared vision partial r=, 443), it can be seen there is an almost moderate positive relationship. When Durbin Watson test was examined (1.92), it can be seen there is no autocorrelation in the model. Conclusion and the Discussion In personal mastery dimension, elementary school teachers remarked that the individuals who want improve themselves are usually valued in their schools; however, they stated that written materials necessary for the improvement of the teachers are sometimes provided. In mental models dimension, they stated that they usually feel comfortable to share their opinions with the people around them in their schools and declared that sometimes im- provements are made with a purpose of develop- ment. In shared vision dimension, teachers stated that the objectives of their organization are usu- ally established clearly and accurately; sometimes implementations/applications in their schools are put into practice after their opinions are asked and sometimes plans in their schools are taken into consideration before problems arise not after problems occurred. In team learning dimension, teachers stated that they are usually eager to take responsibility in a team and would be pleased to take part in the duty; and they stated that activities in their schools sometimes are carried out through teamwork. Similar results were found in the studies, which were done by Güçlü and Türkoğlu (2003), Banoğlu (2009) and Kılıç (2009). While the teachers stated that team learning and mental models are usually included in their schools, they said that personal mastery of the teachers is sometimes improved and sometimes it was acted according to system thinking. This finding coin- cides with the results of the study done by Güçlü and Türkoğlu (2003). However, it is not consistent with the results of the studies done by Bal (2011), Subaş (2010), Banoğlu (2009), Kılıç (2009), Alp (2007) and Güleş (2007). In the compliance dimension of organizational commitment, elementary school teachers did not agree that their attempts for student achievement are only within the course hours and they feel un- comfortable about the efforts of the management to attach them to the school. In identification dimen- sion, while the teachers strongly agreed that they are proud of becoming a member of their schools, they somewhat agreed that their schools provide opportunities to follow changes and latest devel- opments about their professions. In internalization dimension, while the teachers strongly agreed that they consider their schools’ future and they will make every kind of sacrifices for their schools’ ben- efit, they somewhat agreed that they perceive their schools’ priorities as their priorities and they spend their time with the activities about their schools. According to the results of the study, it was seen that organizational commitment levels of teachers are the highest in internalization dimension and identifica- tion and compliance dimensions follow this in order. Similarly, Balay (2000a), Sezer (2005), Erdem (2008) and Uygur and Yıldırım (2011) found out that teach- ers are highly committed in internalization dimen- sion and they are slightly committed in compliance dimension. These findings coincide with the findings of Sezgin (2010), Sarıkaya (2011) and Tüzel (2010)

E D U C A T I O N A L S C I E N C E S : T H E O R Y & P R A C T I C E 1532 who studied teachers’ commitment and concluded that the levels of emotional commitment, which is similar to internalization commitment is higher compared to continuity commitment and norma- tive commitment. However, they are not consistent with Uğurlu’s (2009) results in which teachers are the most committed in continuity dimension and slight- ly committed in normative commitment. The same inconsistency occurs in İmamoğlu’s (2011), study in which the results showed that teachers are the most committed in compliance dimension and the least committed in identification commitment. On the other hand, Çakır (2007) reached a conclusion in his/her study that teachers are uncommitted in emo- tional, continuity and normative sub-dimensions of organizational commitment. In the study, internalization commitment is found higher than others are. Internalization commitment can be seen positive in one angle but can be seen negative from another angle. The positive side is that it shows that there is compliance between the indi- vidual and organizational values. However, at the same time, it can show the individual’s commitment to the school in the level of a workaholic. Workahol- ism is not perceived positively in working life be- cause workaholism affect the balance between per- sonal life and working life in a negative way (Akın & Oğuz, 2010; Bardakçı & Baloğlu, 2012). When regression analysis was examined, it was seen there is a negative low relationship between the di- mensions of learning organization perception and compliance dimension of organizational commit- ment. Shared vision and team learning explained 18% of compliance dimension. In the identification dimension of organizational commitment, three variables were added to the regression model. These are shared vision, team learning and personal mas- tery variables. That the inclusion of internalization, shared vision, team learning and personal mastery variables affected in a higher level (this explained 36% of the model) compared to other variables is an expected finding. In internalization dimension, first team learning and then shared vision variables were added to the model. A positive but low rela- tionship was found between these variables and internalization. The finding show parallelism with the results of the studies done by other researchers (Erdem, 2008; İmamoğlu, 2011; Şama & Kolamaz, 2011; Uygur & Yıldırım, 2011). In this study, maximum three variables were added to the model. The variables added to the model were shared vision, team learning and personal mastery. Mental models and system thinking were never added to the model. These variables mostly predict the identification dimension and they predict com- pliance dimension the least. While a negative low relationship was seen between compliance dimen- sion and the dimensions of learning organization, positive but a low relationship was seen between identification, internalization and other variables. It is seen that remarkable research results were obtained about teachers’ organizational commit- ment and related issues in the body of the litera- ture (Çakır, 2007; Kılıçoğlu, 2010; Korkmaz, 2011; Sarıkaya, 2011; Sezgin, 2010; Uğurlu, 2009; Tüzel, 2010). The fact that the schools conduct support- ive activities and establish an appropriate organi- zational structure for this is effective in determin- ing teachers’ organizational commitment. Morgan (1998) stated that realizing a problem is usually the first step that leads to the solution. In this context, identifying and eliminating the obstacles that pre- vent organizational learning and organizational commitment from developing will be an import- ant step to provide productivity/efficiency of these schools. When the results of the study were tak- en into consideration, it is necessary to share the school’s vision, to do the teamwork and to provide teachers’ personal development to increase the or- ganizational commitment in schools in terms of learning organization. To be able to create a shared school vision, it is necessary to discuss the vision with the teachers and to organize workshops so the vision needs to be introduced. Developing team- work in schools will increase both the commitment that the teachers have for each other and for the school. Therefore, teachers need to acquire team- work culture and applied seminars about teamwork and anything related to this issue need to be given first to the managers then to the teachers. However, providing teachers’ personal development, create environments to reveal their talents, organize sem- inars, giving in-service training; guiding them to new fields in accordance with their talents will in- crease their organizational commitment. All these activities will increase teachers’ identification and internalization commitments not their reluctant attachments to the schools.
