The aim of this research is to determine the perception levels of teachers regarding their own empowerment, organizational commitment, professional commitment and organizational citizenship behaviors(OCBs) and to determine the mediating role of organizational and professional commitment in the relationship between teachers' empowerment and OCBs. The research is in correlational survey model. The sample of the research is 441 teachers working for public secondary schools in the central districts of Denizli during the 2019-2020 academic year. For analyzing the data “mediation effect analysis” was performed. It has been determined that teachers have "very high" level of perceptions about OCBs, "high" level of perceptions about their empowerment, ethical and professional commitment, "moderate" level of perceptions of calculative commitment, and "very low" level of perceptions of alienative commitment. In the multi-mediation model, in which the effect of teacher empowerment on OCBs was examined through the dimensions of professional commitment and organizational commitment, it was determined that the variables of professional commitment and ethical commitment had a significant partial mediation effect between teacher empowerment and OCBs. As teachers' empowerment increases, OCBs also increase, and 59% of this increase is explained by the positive effects of professional commitment and ethical commitment on OCBs.Downloads
