Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this study is to reveal the different ways in which a group of teachers understand the anger they feel toward the school principals with whom they interact.

Design/methodology/approach

The present study was designed and conducted as a phenomenography. In phenomenographic research, the number of different ways in which participants understand a particular phenomenon is revealed. The data from semi-structured interviews with 15 teachers who differed in terms of school level, gender and age were analyzed according to the phenomenographic tradition.

Findings

The analysis revealed that although the participants had eight different understandings of the anger in question, all participants had an understanding that was described as “An emotion arising from not being treated with the respect we deserve.”

Practical implications

The source of anger for the participating teachers was the behavior of their principals, which made them feel that they were not considered respectable and valuable. Incorporating this insight into the training of school leaders may lead to useful outcomes in improving the quality of interactions between principals and teachers.

Originality/value

As one of the few examples of phenomenographic research in educational management, the present study contributes to providing a solid foundation for exploring the anger that teachers feel toward their principals by showing how and in what ways participating teachers may understand this feeling.

教师对校长愤怒情绪的理解:一项现象学研究
本研究的目的是揭示一群教师是如何以不同的方式理解他们对与其打交道的校长所产生的愤怒情绪的。在现象学研究中,参与者对某一现象的不同理解方式被揭示出来。研究结果分析表明,尽管参与者对愤怒有八种不同的理解,但所有参与者的理解都被描述为:"一种因没有得到应有的尊重而产生的情绪。"实践意义参与研究的教师的愤怒来源于校长的行为,这让他们觉得自己不被尊重,没有价值。作为教育管理领域为数不多的现象学研究范例之一,本研究通过展示参与研究的教师是如何以及以何种方式理解教师对校长的愤怒情绪的,为探讨教师对校长的愤怒情绪奠定了坚实的基础。
