  • Abstract

    The main aim of the present study was to find the impact of Teachers’ attitude towards Academic supervision on Organizational Citizenship ‎Behavior among secondary school teachers. The survey was conducted on N-=1199 secondary school teachers of Haryana state of India. ‎Teachers’ Attitude towards Academic supervision scale [1] was used to assess the attitude of teachers towards academic supervision and ‎Organisational Citizenship Behaviour [2] was used to assess the Organisational Citizenship Behaviour among the secondary school teach-‎ers. The scales were validated on the Indian population of secondary school teachers. The results confirmed that both scales were valid and ‎reliable to be used on Indian population of secondary school teachers. Further, the results ascertained that a significant portion of teachers ‎‎(32.86%) showed attitude towards academic supervision and a substantial percentage of the teachers showed moderate (49.62%) or high ‎‎(28.44%) levels of organisational Citizenship Behaviour (OCB). Furthermore, male and female; rural and urban areas, government and ‎private secondary school teachers and teachers with different years of teaching experience do not differ significantly with respect to their ‎attitude of towards academic supervision and male/female, rural/urban and government/private secondary school teachers did not differ significantly with respect to their organisational citizenship behaviour, but a significant difference was found among the teachers with different ‎years of teaching experiences. Furthermore, the results indicated that teachers’ attitude towards academic supervision is not only statistically ‎significant but also has a meaningful impact on the Organizational Citizenship Behaviour of the secondary school teachers‎.
