Principals are the instructional leaders of schools. Because the principals\u2019 role impacts the quality of instructional programs and student achievement, it is important that school boards and superintendents address principals\u2019 needs to help improve their organizational commitment. Most studies in education tend to focus on student achievement, narrowing the achievement gap, and professional development. Few researchers study organizational commitment of principals. Studies such as this one may help school boards and district administrators better meet the needs of principals employed in their school systems. This study\u2019s findings will serve to support the relationship of principals\u2019 organizational commitment to job satisfaction, perceived organizational support, and transformational leadership behavior. Method : The research question addressed was whether relationships exist between organizational commitment, job satisfaction, perceived organizational support, and transformational leadership behavior. The analytical procedure of multiple regression was utilized to determine the predictive strength of job satisfaction, perceived organizational support, and transformational leadership behavior on organizational commitment. To obtain participants for this study, public school principals in the State of Maryland were invited to participate via a questionnaire on Survey Monkey. The first 100 principals who responded by completing the questionnaire were selected as participants for this study. To ensure anonymity, no identifying information was requested other than education and school level at which the respondents worked. Results : The results of the study showed a significant regression equation (p \u003C .05) to predict organizational commitment. The three predictors were valuable in predicting organizational commitment. Although job satisfaction was not a major contributor, perceived organizational support and transformational leadership behavior were." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Classification" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "LB2831.924.M3 D38 2010" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publication Date" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "2010" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Genre" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Academic theses" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Holding Location" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University Archives and Special Collections" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Resource Identifier" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "LB2831.924.M3 D38 2010_DawsonTimothy" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Language" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "English" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Permanent Link" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "http://sobekcmsrv.barrynet.barry.edu/AA00001367/00001" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Creator" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Dawson, Timothy" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Note" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Thesis (Ph.D.)--Barry University, 2010.", "Includes bibliographical references (leaves 63-78)." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Physical Description" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "ix, 87 leaves ; 28 cm" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publisher" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Place of Publication" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Miami, Fla." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Type" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Book" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Rights Management" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Copyright Timothy Dawson.
