| Abstract | Differences between male and female teachers' perceptions of male and female principals, with a focus on principals' motivation and social control communication styles, are explored in this report. Social control communication was categorized into two factors--motivation and orientation. As a replication of a study conducted in Washington State, 399 teachers and 20 principals from 20 public schools in the Province of Alberta were surveyed to determine how teachers experienced their principal during communication episodes when the principal expressed expectations. Ten principals, 5 male and 5 female, were "shadowed" for a day to gather field data through observation, interviews, and document analysis. The findings indicated the existence of a cross-gender effect on teacher and principal communication. Teachers experienced female principals as being more positive communicators than male principals, using extrinsic and intrinsic reward structures. Male teachers did not perceive female principals to use threats or sanctions as often as did male principals. Compared with previous literature findings, the results demonstrate the existence and importance of separate gender realities. The recommendation is made for better understanding the differences between male and female experiences. One figure and four tables are included. (14 references) (LMI) |
