The relationship between headteachers' transformational leadership and primary school teachers' stress in Ipoh
description The purpose of this study is to identify the correlation between headteacherstransformational leadership, from teachers perspective, and teachers stress. The researchdesign of this study is correlational research. The 358 respondents of this study wereselected by stratified random sampling, from over 4300 primary school teachers in KintaUtara, Ipoh, Perak. Data were collected using questionnaire, which consists of MultifactorLeadership Questionnaire (MLQ-5X) and Perceived Stress Scale (PSS). The data obtainedwas analysed using descriptive statistics, such as mean dan standard deviation, andinferential statistics, such as Pearsons correlation. The results uncovered that theheadteachers portrayed a good level of transformational leadership behaviour (M = 58.8,SD = 12.08), and the teachers stress was moderate (M = 18.78, SD = 9.21). There was asignificant negative correlation (r = -0.706, p <0.001) between headteacherstransformational leadership and teachers stress. There was also a significant negativecorrelation (r = -0.709, p = 0.000) between headteachers transformational leadership andteachers stress, based on gender, and significant negative correlation (r = -0.709, p = 0.000)between headteachers transformational leadership and teachers stress, based on years ofservice. The findings implemented that transformational leadership behaviour coulddiminish stress. In conclusion, the headteachers needed to choose suitable leadershipbehaviour based on the setting, leading the teacher to deliver their role effectively.
