Abstract

Although research on the outcomes of leadership practices has increased, the research area on the antecedents of leadership has been underexplored. This study investigated the associations between leadership self-efficacy, motivation to lead and leadership practices that influence the leadership behaviours of higher education students. In the study in which the cross-sectional research design, the sample comprised 545 undergraduates from Turkey. The results showed that increasing student leadership self-efficacy beliefs directly affected leadership practices. Also, in research found the motivation to lead to having an important partially mediated role in the relationship between student self-efficacy beliefs and leadership practices. This study contributes to the existing body of international knowledge on school leadership research by concluding that the effect of leadership self-efficacy and students' motivation to lead on student practices. As a result, in study propose that educational activities aimed at enhancing undergraduate students' leadership self-efficacy and motivation to lead include elements that concentrate on developing students' leadership self-efficacy and motivation to lead. Implications for policy, practice and research are discussed.

领导自我效能感对大学生领导实践的影响：领导动机的中介作用

尽管有关领导力实践结果的研究不断增加，但有关领导力前因的研究领域却鲜有涉足。本研究调查了影响高校学生领导行为的领导自我效能感、领导动机和领导实践之间的关联。研究采用横断面研究设计，样本包括来自土耳其的 545 名本科生。研究结果表明，学生领导自我效能感信念的提高会直接影响领导实践。研究还发现，领导动机在学生自我效能感信念与领导实践的关系中起着重要的部分中介作用。本研究通过总结领导自我效能感和学生的领导动机对学生实践的影响，为学校领导力研究的现有国际知识体系做出了贡献。因此，本研究建议，旨在提高本科生领导自我效能感和领导动机的教育活动应包括集中培养学生领导自我效能感和领导动机的内容。本研究还讨论了对政策、实践和研究的影响。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
