Description
Summary:碩士 === 輔仁大學 === 教育領導與發展研究所碩士班 === 105 === This study explored the relationship between the leadership styles of formators and the motivation of seminarians by examining the correlations between Transformational Leadership, Servant Leadership, and seminarians’ motivation. Participants included 84 seminarians of the Society of the Divine Word (SVD) in the Philippines, studying in Christ the King Seminary, Quezon City, SVD Postulancy, Tagaytay City, and Divine Word Seminary, Tagaytay City. The biggest numbers of participants were students of Philosophy (56%), followed by Theology (25%) and Postulancy (19%). Participants completed the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ), Servant Leadership Survey (SLS), and Work Motivation Questionnaire (WMQ). The results showed that all three variables significantly and positively correlated with each other. And both the independent variables of Transformational Leadership and Servant Leadership significantly and positively impacted the dependent variable of Motivation, simultaneously and independently. In simultaneous regression analysis, Servant Leadership predicted motivation better than Transformational Leadership. Further examination of hierarchical regression analysis where Servant Leadership was controlled, Transformational Leadership still positively and significantly affected motivation. Finally, exploratory analyses of the influence of the demographic formation level on the three variables showed significant differences, with seminarians in the Postulancy level showing the highest degree of motivation.
