Toward an Explanation of Variation in Teachers' Perceptions of Transformational School Leadership
Abstract
This study has two purposes: to develop a theoretical account of how teachers'perceptions of transformational school leadership are formed and to provide an initial, empirical test of the theory. The theory, developed from cognitive science views of human thought and perception, explains the formation of teachers' leader perceptions as a function of both alterable conditions found in the school context and unalterable characteristics of both leaders and followers. Survey evidence from a sample of 423 elementary and secondary schools about their principals suggests that alterable school conditions explain most of the variation in teachers' leader perceptions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
