Özet

The purpose of this study is to determine whether organizational dissent has a mediating role in the relationship between elementary school teachers’ job security perceptions and professional self-esteem. The research was conducted using the descriptive-relational survey model with 211 elementary school teachers working in 14 public primary schools in the city center of Amasya in the 2018-2019 academic year. The data in the study were collected using Arıcak's (1999) Professional Self-Esteem Scale, Kassing's (2000) Organizational Dissent Scale, and the Job Security Perception Scale developed by the researcher. According to the results of the research, elementary school teachers exhibit vertical dissent behavior rather than horizontal dissent behavior. In addition, job security positively and significantly affects Vertical and Horizontal dissent. Vertical Dissent affects Belief in the Functionality of the Profession sub-dimensions significantly and positively; its’ effect on Acceptance of the Profession and the Value of the Profession is not statistically significant. Horizontal Dissent does not significantly affect Acceptance of the Profession, Value of the Profession, and Belief in the Functionality of the Profession sub-dimensions. It was concluded that there is a low and positive relationship between elementary school teachers’ job security perceptions and professional self-esteem, organizational dissent is a partial mediator in the relationship between job security perception and professional self-esteem, and vertical dissent is a partial intermediator in the relationship between job security perception and belief in the functionality of the profession.
