Özet

The aim of the present study was to determine the correlations between organizational citizenship, and organizational stress and exhaustion levels of the physical education teachers. For the study which was conducted using relational screening model; questionnaire forms were administered to the 311 physical education teachers who worked in Hatay Province. The data were analyzed using SPSS 18 package program. For the data analyses; correlation and regression models were investigated. When the data obtained were examined, it was found out that there was a positive correlation between physical education teachers' organizational citizenship behaviors and workload (r: 0.528), skill-utilization (r: 0.510), participation in decision-making (r: 0.535) and social support (r: 0.620) subscales of Organizational Stress Inventory. On the other hand, it was noted that there was a positive correlation between physical education teachers' organizational citizenship behaviors and personal accomplishment/failure (r: 0.621) subscales of Burnout Inventory whereas a negative correlation existed between physical education teachers' organizational citizenship behaviors and emotional burnout and depersonalization (r: -0.351) subscales of Burnout Inventory. It was understood that Organizational Stress Inventory and Burnout Inventory accounted for 48% of altruism, 43% of conscientiousness, 45% of courtesy, 32% of sportsmanship, 41% of civic virtue of the organizational citizenship behavior subscales and 59% of general organizational citizenship behaviors. It was seen that social support and workload subscales of Organizational Stress Inventory, and depersonalization and personal accomplishment/failure subscales of Burnout Inventory were predictive of general organizational behaviors of physical education teacher.
