Abstract

This study investigates the effect of principal leadership on teacher commitment and subjective well-being in the sport education context of China with subjective well-being as a mediator and teacher altruism as a moderator. SMART-PLS is used for data analysis and the result shows that principal leadership plays a positive role in teacher commitment and wellbeing. In addition, the mediating roles of teacher's subjective well-being as well as the moderating role of teacher altruism are confirmed. The study stresses the role of the principal leadership which is supportive and recommends creating a school culture that considers the wellbeing of teachers and recognizes values such as altruism as a way of improving teachers' outcomes. This research adds to the knowledge base regarding educational leadership, emphasizing the complex nature of the interplay between leadership practices and teacher behaviors.
