Successful Principal Leadership comprises core leadership practices and essential constructs, and can be adopted as a specific comprehensive leadership model. The purposes of this study are to develop a Successful Principal Leadership Scale, and test its reliability and validity. After expert validity, pre-test, and formal test, the Successful Principal Leadership Scale is divided into five dimensions: setting directions for school development, cultivating teachers and administrators, redesigning the organization and learning communities, managing instruction programs and teaching quality, and building a tightly-knit coalition, for a total of 29 items. By comparison of competing models, this study adopted a second-order model for confirmatory factor analysis. Results indicated that the Successful Principal Leadership Scale has good reliability, construct validity, model fit, and cross-validation. In the future, school leadership research can be conducted according to this scale, continue revising the scale, and test its reliability and validity. The Successful Principal Leadership Scale can serve as a reference for school leaders’ self-examination and improvement in daily practices, and marching toward successful school leadership. |
