support and teachers’ classroom management styles vary in terms of
their subject matter and experience. The research was conducted on 178
math and science teachers. The data were collected with Teacher
Autonomy Support Scale and Turkish version of Attitudes and Beliefs on
Classroom Control (ABCC) Inventory. The findings have discerned that
teachers’ autonomy support is at medium level and teachers had
interventionist orientations on instructional management dimension and
most of them had nonintervionist orientations on people management
dimension. And also teachers who had interactionalist orientations are
more autonomy supportive than others.
and their perceptions of teachers’ motivational support styles. To do this a hypothesized structural model
specifying the direct relationships of students’ engagement and their perceptions of teachers’ motivational
support is used. The model, covers students’ motivational regulations, as mediator variables, between students’
engagement and their perceptions of teachers’ motivational support styles, that is tested. Participants are 276
ninth grade high school students (148 girls and 126 boys). Data are collected by the “Effective Participation
Scale,” “Motivational Regulation Scale,” and “Teachers’ Motivational Support Scale.” The fit statistics indicate
that the research model provides a reasonably good fit to the data (x² = 74.62, df = 38, p = .00, RMSEA = .086, RMR
= .05, CFI = .96, GFI = .90, AGFI = .92, NFI = .91, NNFI = .91). Chi-square to degrees of freedom ratio x²/df = 1.96
is satisfactory. The study indicates that motivational support provided by teachers has effect on the students’
motivation orientation and active class participation.
