The relationship between organizational identification and organizational dissent according to the views of upper-secondary state school teachers

This research aims to investigate the relationship between organizational identification and organizational dissent at upper-secondary state schools according to the views of upper-secondary state school teachers in Isparta province during the academic year 2017-2018. Within the general aim, the research aims to investigate teachers' views both on organizational identification in the dimensions of "adaptation", "identification" and "internalization" and on organizational dissent in the dimensions of "articulated", "latent" and "displaced"; whether there is a significant difference for each dimension in terms of gender, age, professional seniority, professional seniority at their current school, school type, union membership, and social media use; and, whether organizational identification is a significant predictor of organizational dissent. "Organizational Identification Scale" and "Organizational Dissent Scale" were used. Relational screening model was used. The sample group of the study consisted of 291 teachers. SPSS 22.0 was used in data analysis. Descriptive statistics were used in terms of frequency, percentage, arithmetic mean and standard deviation. Independent samples T-test and one-way analysis of variance (One-way ANOVA) were used in the comparison analysis. A simple correlation analysis was conducted to investigate the relationship between the two variables and multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to find out whether organizational identification is a significant predictor of organizational dissent. According to the results, teachers' views on organizational identification and organizational dissent are moderate and teachers' views can differentiate depending on various demographic variables. A significant relationship was found between the dimensions of the two variables, and it was found that the identification dimension of organizational identification is a significant predictor of articulated dissent, and the dimension of adaptation of organizational identification is a significant predictor of latent dissent.
