Abstract :

The purpose of this study was to predict the job performance of primary school teachers based on the management style of principals by considering the mediating role of job satisfaction. The statistical population included all primary school teachers in Saghez city (633 people) by using of Cochran's formula and cluster sampling method sample size was equal to 239 person. Job satisfaction, management style and job performance questionnaires were used to collect data. Descriptive and inferential tests (Structural equation modeling) were used to analyze the data. The results showed that management style had a significant effect on teachers' job performance. Among management styles, only humanistic style had a significant effect on job performance and job satisfaction of teachers. Among the components of job satisfaction, the nature of work had a significant effect on teachers' job performance. Considering the T value of the general model, it is concluded that all paths were significant in 0.01 level. On the other hand, considering that the path coefficient obtained was significant in the direct model but lost its significance in the mediation model, it can be concluded that the job satisfaction variable completely mediates the effect of management style on job performance.
