Description
The purpose of this study was to examine the
relationship between the leadership style of a teacher
(based on the teacher's attitudes of students as measured
by the Supervisory Attitudes Scale), and the amount of
self-esteem of the students (based on the school environment
as measured by the Semantic Differential Scale). The
study attempted to answer the question, "Does the leadership
style of a teacher affect the measure of self-esteem
in the students?" The sample for this study consisted of two hundred
grade six teachers and their six thousand students located
in six districts of the Toronto Board of Education, Toronto,
Ontario, Canada. The Teachers' attitude Scale was administered to the two hundred grade six teachers to determine
by district the fifteen per cent most authoritarian and the
fifteen per cent most non-authoritarian teachers .
It was concluded that teachers' leadership attitudes
did have a significant effect on students' self-esteem,
and that students of teachers with Theory X attitudes had
a significantly lower measure of self-esteem than students
of teachers with Theory Y attitudes.
