Abstract

This research was aimed at finding out whether students’ pro-eco behavior could be predicted by their personality and self-efficacy interms of a correlational study. A survey method was used involving 200 senior high school students in Jakarta. The reliability of three instruments were respectively 0.75 (pro-eco behavior), 0.87 (big-5 environmental personality), and 0.66 (self-efficacy). Regression and correlation analysis were used. Results revealed that both personality and self-efficacy have a positive and highly significant correlation with students’ pro-eco behavior, even for first-order correlation. Multiple regression model for those variables was also found highly significant. Therefore, it could be concluded that student’s pro-eco behavior could be strongly predicted by personality and self-efficacy and in strengthening students’ pro-eco behavior, their personality and self-efficacy could be taken into account. Considering the results obtained, it was suggested to teachers, who held an important role in the learning process, to understand students’ personalities by paying attention to identifying students’ personalities. It is important also to spontaneously carrying out a kind of parents, society, teacher collaboration. In improving students’ self-efficacy, teachers were supposed to appreciate students which finally would strengthen students’ pro-eco behavior to be more positive and students healthy could be achieved effectively.

Abstract

Teachers’ integrity pays important role in school organization which include honesty. To be honest is difficult for some people including biological teachers in teaching the truth of biological concept. How integrity could be used as mediated factor between school leadership and teachers’ citizenship behavior (CB) was a research problem. A causal survey, therefore, used on this research by taking 100 senior high school biological teachers. Data collected by administrating three instruments which measured teachers’ CB, school leadership and integrity and data analyzed by applying path analysis. Research findings showed that teachers’ CB directly and significantly affected by school leadership, in this case, integrity was not positively found to be good as mediated variable between school leadership and teachers’ CB. Therefore, when teachers performance would like to be well managed then factors such as school leadership could be improved as part of doing continuous improvement for increasing school quality by considering biological teachers’ performance.

Abstract

The objective of this research is to find out whether there is a correlation between Students’ Attitude and Locus of Control with Personality towards the Environment. For these purposes a survey method has been applied by involving 120 primary school students, in Jakarta which was selected randomly. There were three instruments developed on this research namely instrument for measuring Personality towards the Environment, Students’ Attitude and Locus of Control. Hypotheses have been tested by applying F-test through ANOVA for simple and multiple regression, and correlation as well. Research results show that there is a positive a significant correlation found between Students’ Attitude and Locus of Control with Personality towards the Environment. Moreover, there is a positive and still significant found between those variables after each of those independent variables were controlled by calculating partial correlation. It is also found a positive and significant multiple correlation between those variables. It should be concluded that if students’ personality towards the environment would be improved therefore, students’ attitude and locus of control could be taken into account.

Keywords

Personality towards the Environment, Students’ Attitude, Locus of Control.

Abstract

Adopting to development of technology at the era of globalization, quality of human resource has a vital role in improving the quality of education which mostly depend on teachers’ quality as well. This research, therefore, aimed at finding out whether teachers’ personality (big-five personality) and motivation affected on teachers’ citizenship behavior/CB (performance). A causal survey used by selecting 81 teachers randomly. Three instruments developed to measure personality with reliability of .930, motivation (.918), and citizenship behavior with reliability of .884. Data was analyzed by regression, correlation and path analysis. Research results showed that teachers’ motivation was good and non significant as mediated factor between personality and teachers’ CB, personality directly and significantly affect teachers’ CB, and motivation directly and significantly affect teachers’ CB. Based on these findings, it could be concluded that variation of teachers’ CB or in more specific, teachers’ performance, influenced by teachers’ personality and motivation variation, so when biological teachers’ performance would be improved, the role of teachers’ personality (big-five factors) and motivation should be taken into consideration, especially in making decision in improving continuously the quality of junior high school, particularly biological teaching and learning.

Abstract

When people believe that they are able to do anything assigned to them, their motivation to work harder and they feel that the work place perceived like their home in term of high in organizational commitment. So, when it would be generalized to school as an organization, then it could be a problem for this research. Considering this problem, a causal survey used by selecting 100 senior high school biological teachers as sample. Teachers self-efficacy, motivation and organizational commitment measured by instruments which have been validated. Data analyzed by apllying regression, correlation and path analysis. Research results indicated that the connection between self-efficacy and organizational commitment (OC) has been significantly supported by empirical data and significantly mediated by motivation as well. If it was discussed or talked about motivation, the factor such as self-efficacy could not be neglected rather each of these, such as self-efficacy and motivation directly affect teachers OC. That is why when school system would like to reduce the number of teachers withdraw intention, therefore, teachers OC should be strengthened by considering that teachers’ self-efficacy and motivation to be well managed for improving biological teachers quality, in particular.

Abstract

The difference in the consumer’s personality will affect his behavior in choosing or buying a product, because consumers will buy goods that are in accordance with his personality. This study aims to look at the effect of personality and gender on green consumer behavior (GCB). This research uses quantitative, survey method and ex-post facto techniques. The population in this study were all students of the Jakarta State University, the outreach study participants were students of Catering, Clothing, Makeup and Family Welfare Education increasing 600 students. The results showed that personality had a significant influence in describing GCB and GCB differences were found in male/female student groups who had accurate personalities, better than GCB in male student groups who had inaccurate personalities. However, personality is not influenced by gender, which means that differences in GCB are influenced by interactions between personality and gender.

Abstract

The problem that school often faced is how to keep low or zero teachers’ turn over rate meant that their organizational commitment should be maintained. It presumably was brought about where there was no trust anymore and confused teachers leadership. So, that was why this research conducted is to solve the problem, whether teachers’ task performance affected directly or indirectly by leadership and trust. Around 100 senior high school biological teachers used as sample and causal survey applied. Instruments developed to measure organizational commitment (OC), teachers leadership (TL) and trust (T) and data analyzed by path analysis. Research findings showed that both of those exogen factor, teachers’ leadership and trust were found to be significantly and directly affect on teachers’ organizational commitment. Besides, trust was found to be good mediated factor as well. Therefore, these findings implied that in reducing teachers turn over rate in term of teachers organizational commitment would be scientifically, the role of teachers leadership and trust could be taken into account.

Abstract

School culture has been viewed as a vital variable in building school climate to be more condusive. Whether this factor will affect biological teachers job satisfaction and finally affect teachers’ task performance was the problem of this research. A causal survey used by selecting randomly 90 senior high school biological teachers as sample. There were three instruments developed to measure teachers’ task performance, school culture and job satisfaction which has been already validated. Data analyzed by regression, correlation and path analysis. Research findings showed that teachers task performance directly and significantly affected by school culture and job satisfaction as well, and based on this finding, job satisfaction was good mediated variable in connecting school culture and teachers’ task performance. It was logic findings when teachers’ performance expected to be more positive, all of teachers, especially biological teachers, require a positive atmosphere reflected by school culture and also to what extent teachers felt satisfied treated by the school system. Therefore, educational policy makers should pay more attention on how to improve school culture to be more conducive, teachers felt more satisfied then will have an impact on school quality reflected by teachers’ task performance.
