Abstract

Teacher leadership behaviors are important in improving teaching qualities and promoting talent training levels. By using methods of literature analysis, in-depth interview and semi-open questionnaire, this paper identifies the leadership behaviors of college PE teachers into 3 categories: teamwork, system construction and professional development. Taking 324 PE teachers from 7 colleges and universities as research objects, this paper carried out the survey on college teacher leadership behaviors. The results show that the coefficients of each category were 0.950, 0.936 and 0.934 respectively. The coefficient of the whole questionnaire was about 0.945. Comparative fitness indexes of the structural model , , , and were 1.909, 0.91, 0.93, 0.94 and 0.94, showing the structural model had good goodness of fit. In addition, there were significant differences in leadership behaviors of college PE teachers with different ages, academic qualifications and titles. Teachers with higher education and titles had significantly higher performances than teachers with lower education and titles in 3 dimensions (<0.01); older teachers had significantly higher performances than young teachers in the categories of system construction and professional development (<0.01), while the difference in teamwork is not statistically significant (>0.05). The leadership behavior questionnaire of college PE teachers can be used as an effective tool to monitor and evaluate the leadership behaviors of PE teachers.
