Abstract: - Many people fail to reach the pinnacle of their careers because they experience a crisis of self-
efficacy. Self-efficacy plays an important role in the success of a job mission. However, self-efficacy is a
variable that has been influenced and other times it can influence other variables. This study aims to analyze
how transformational, transactional, and laissez-faire leadership interact with self-efficacy. This research is a
survey and data obtained from respondents as many as 140 high school teachers in the form of self-reports, and
the data is collected using SEM Amos Version 22. The results of Amos processing show that Transformational
and laissez-faire leadership styles negatively affect self-efficacy. Only transactional leadership style positively
affects self-efficacy. The research concludes that only transactional leadership has a positive effect on self-
efficacy because followers (teachers) have different backgrounds and motivations and the majority of followers
(teachers) have not yet reached the level of self-actualization.

1 Introduction
People often fail to start something or reach a career
stage because of a self-efficacy deficit. On the other
hand, people who succeed in reaching the stage of
being a leader and succeed in leadership because
they have self-confidence. Many studies reveal that
self-confidence is a good predictor of their career
success. However, self-efficacy does not come by
itself. It will be with those self-efficacy builders,
such as the mastery of knowledge they encounter.
Just as a literature study on cervical health found the
cause of the patient's self-confidence to ask for and
be given treatment assistance. It was found that
having knowledge about cervical cancer, shame on
others, fear of the pain of screening, fear of finding
abnormal conditions, and wrong attitude towards
women's screening process [1, 2]. Including the lack
of awareness and perceive the unimportance of
cervical cancer screening are the factors [3]. In
addition, some women do not realize the importance
of screening, do not receive news and information
from health workers, preventing women from
learning to develop self-efficacy, which can help
them decide on cervical cancer screening [4]. Thus,
medical experts face difficulties in providing
assistance for cervical cancer treatment. In this
regard, the world will face many problems related to
improving the quality of life, especially in the health
sector. This shows that self-efficacy becomes very
important.
Assessment of perceived self-efficacy includes three
dimensions [5], such as 1) Strength dimension is an
assessment of actions that make women confident,
2) The generality dimension emphasizes self-
assessment to build self-confidence, and 3) the
Magnitude dimension aims to have self-expectations
that can lead to success. Women have high degrees
in all three dimensions because women have the
determination to succeed [6]. Self-efficacy can
indeed affect but self-efficacy can also be
influenced [7]. A good leader will pay attention to
and develop a sense of followers' efficacy. On the
other hand, a leader who does not want to develop
his followers and intends to break the relationship
simply destroys his followers’ efficacy. When self-
efficacy collapses, everything collapses. Followers
will not survive and continue to grow. Followers

will find a new comfortable place for themselves
[8].
To be able to develop follower self-efficacy, a
leader must have a good management and
leadership system. For example, in the health sector,
having an occupational health and safety
management system does not fully guarantee the
creation of a safe working environment and the
reduction of work accidents. In addition to the
management system, there is a need for leadership
in occupational safety to carry out operations and
ensure the continuity of occupational health and
safety activities. The conceptualization of safety
leadership plays an important role in explaining how
to implement an occupational health and safety
management system and improve an organization's
safety performance. In this regard, contemporary
leadership theory introduces three approaches. The
theories that contribute to the development of safety
leadership are as follows: “Transformational
Leadership Theory”, “Transactional Leadership
Theory” and “Delegative Leadership Style”
(Laissez-Faire). In addition, the Multifactor
Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) was formed to
define leadership behaviors [9].
It has been proven that Leadership” is the most
strategic component in what is known as an
organizational system, consisting of various
elements, such as structure, goals, relationships,
rewards, procedures, and organizational policies,
always depending on the needs for the flexibility
created by external factors. Transformational
Leadership plays a dominant role in contemporary
leadership theory, which is confirmed by surveys to
be highly correlated with the full specter of
organizational outcomes, such as effectiveness,
motivation, innovation, job engagement,
satisfaction, learning, etc. [10-12]. This hypothetical
relationship between Transformational Leadership
and organizational outcomes is empirically
demonstrated by research that proves the effect of
this type of leadership practice on variables referred
to as leadership outcomes namely, followers
perceived leadership effectiveness and follower job
satisfaction [13, 14].
The apparent effect of Transformational Leadership
on these independent variables, compared with the
effects of Transactional and Laissez-faire
Leadership, explains the distinct status of this type
of leadership and its strong influence on various
organizational outcomes. At the same time, this fact
forms empirical evidence of the validity of Bass's
Multifactor Leadership Theory, as the most
comprehensive and reliable model that describes
modern leadership [15, 16]. The biggest challenge
in this research is the verification of the application
of this leadership model in the reality of Indonesian
organizations, especially the detection of
transformational, transactional, and laissez-faire
leadership characteristics in Lampung public
administration of education (SMA level).
The purpose of this study is to highlight the effect of
modern leadership types, under the Multifactor
Leadership Theory, namely Transformational,
Transactional, and Laissez-Faire Leadership types.
The aim of the study focuses on the effects of the
three leadership styles on the followers' perceived
leadership outcomes on namely principals’' self-
efficacy.
This research was conducted because the
Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) was
stated to have a very strong influence on other
variables such as job satisfaction, organizational
commitment, and others. As a reference is a study
on research that intends to analyze the effect of the
Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) and
the results show that Transformational Leadership
was found to strongly and positively determine such
as follower perceived leadership effectiveness and
follower job satisfaction, while the positive impact
of Transactional Leadership on these two criteria
proved to be less strong, followed by a very strong
negative effect of Laissez-faire Leadership. The
conclusions drawn can be applied in public sector
organizations with high performance standards. This
study intends to analyze the influence of the
Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) on the
efficacy of high school principals. While the item of
principals’ efficacy taken from TschannenMoran
& Gareis [17, 18]. To achieve this, this research was
guided by the following research questions:
1. What leadership has the positive influence
on self-efficacy?
2. What leadership has the negative influence
on self-efficacy?

salvation refers to a legal order in society in which
people can live without shared. Occupational safety
is related to employees doing work naturally and it
expresses the protection of safety of employees in
the workplace against the dangers arising from the
work they do [19]
A number of surveys have shown that leadership
serves as a catalyst for optimizing organizational
outcomes. Motivation, commitment, satisfaction,
training, and opportunities for learning, creativity,
innovation, high efficiency and effectiveness of
employees and organizations are highly dependent
on the role and practice of leadership strengths [20,
21]. For many elements of the impact of leadership
on organizations and employees, some researchers
suggest that it would be difficult, if not impossible,
to measure accurately [22-24].
The Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire and
application of the Multifactor Leadership Theory
facilitate valid and reliable estimation of the two
key-dependent variables, referred to as leadership
results, such as leadership effectiveness and job
satisfaction [13, 25]. After the introduction of the
questionnaire, an assessment of this dimension in
the empirical study was carried out through
employee imagery, thus creating an anthropocentric
estimate of this dimension based on their perception
of "following" the instructions and suggestions of
the leader. It means follower centric perception [22,
23, 26, 27].
Multifactor leadership is used as the dependent
variable, becoming popular because it represents the
two classic dimensions of leadership orientation:
confident leadership, job-oriented leadership
expressed through the variable Perceived
Leadership by Followers" and "Human relations-
oriented leadership expressed through the variable
like follower job satisfaction. It is empirically
accepted that leadership, to be judged as functional
for an organization, must exert a multiple and equal
positive effect on the two dependent variables [13,
14, 28].
Thus, in the context of this Multifactor Leadership
Theory, which emphasizes the balanced impact of
leadership on tasks and employees, it is empirically
proven that when employees perceive their
leadership to be effective, they state that they are
satisfied with their work. Likewise, when employees
express satisfaction with their jobs, they see their
leadership as effective, precisely because effective
leadership and job satisfaction are two interrelated
facts of successful organizations [12, 20, 22, 23,
26].
2.2 Multifactor Leadership Theory and
Leadership Outcomes
Given the above-mentioned model, the special
effects applied by Transformational Leadership on
the dependent variables mentioned above can be
measured and assessed empirically compared to the
respective effects applied by Transactional
Leadership and Laissez-faire Leadership on the
same dependent variable. At the same time,
empirical verification of the effects and different
responses performed by each leadership type on the
two dependent variables (criteria) was used as
strong evidence for the construct validity of the
Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire mentioned
above. This fact consequently highlights the value
of the appropriate Multifactor Leadership Theory as
a tool for interpreting and assessing modern
leadership and its influence on modern
organizations [22, 27, 29].
2.3 Transformational Leadership
Until recently traditional leadership theory had
focused primarily on the assignment of tasks and
their fulfillment by employees (referred to as
"followers" by Bass), in exchange for possible
rewards or sanctions by the leader. This version of
“compromised” leadership is limited to basic
“transactions” between leaders and members. Bass
identified the need to develop a new leadership
model that would be able to encourage and motivate
members to go beyond their personal interests, in
search of the greater good for the team and the
organization, through achieving optimal levels of
performance. This type of leadership is identified as
“Transformational Leadership”. It was developed
mainly in the 1990s, but remains up-to-date as it
appears to be the most relevant and modern
approach to the concept of "leadership" and the
results this concept produces [13, 24, 27, 30].
Transformational Leadership motivates and inspires
(“transforms”) followers to achieve results beyond
expectations. It envisions followers' concerns,
preoccupations, and needs, it alters ("transforms")
their perception of organizational problems, prompts
them to tackle old problems in new ways and focus
on team success and not individual success.
“Transformational Leaders”, taking into account the
skills and shortcomings of followers, relate
delegated tasks to goals and procedures that require
the highest possible efficiency and benefit to the
organization [13, 20, 22, 30]. “Transformational

Leadership” improves the motivation, morale and
performance of followers, through a variety of
instruments. “Transformational Leaders” link
personal identity and the concept of individual
benefit with the perspectives of organizational
collective identity and team benefits. A
Transformational Leader, embodying the role
described in this model, inspires and challenges his
followers to demonstrate a greater level of self-
reflection on their work and organization [12, 20,
22, 29, 30]. Transformational Leadership has been
shaped theoretically which consists of four
important qualities (factors):
a) Charisma or Idealized Influence that creates
and advances the vision and mission, instilling
virtue, respect, and mutual trust.
Transformational leaders act in beautiful and
innovative ways, exhibit attitudes and values
that exert maximum influence on others
(followers), to seek their self-reflection with
these leaders. [20, 22, 30].
b) Inspiration or Inspiration Motivation that
communicates high expectations, uses symbols
that focus on efforts, and expresses the end goal
in a simple way. Transformational leaders are
visionaries who inspire and motivate others,
instilling the idea that they can achieve beyond
expectations [20, 22, 30].
c) Intellectual stimulation that demands
intelligence, logic, and wise decision making in
solving problems. Transformational leaders
show others new ways of thinking, new ways to
seize opportunities, focus on creativity,
development and innovation [20, 22, 30].
Individualized Considerations that target each
follower individually, guide, advise, and empower
them. Transformational leaders express personal
responsibility and serve as mentors to others. Such a
leader respects the personality and contribution of
each individual to the overall effort and assigns
tasks according to the talents and interests of each
employee [20, 22, 30].
2.4 Transactional Leadership
Transactional Leadership is the process of
transactions between leaders and followers. It is
based on the fulfillment of contractual obligations
arising from their duties, in return for the leader's
attention to full oversight of the process of achieving
goals and rewards for those who comply.
Transactional leaders define the roles and
responsibilities of each worker/employee
individually and they also reward, either financially,
with a raise, or morally, with recognition and
promotion, workers/employees who have achieved
their goals [10, 15, 30].
Unlike transformational leadership, transactional
leaders do not focus on a vision of the future, but
they insist on current practices, asking followers to
formally abide by the rules. Transactional leaders
are committed to existing procedures, ignoring the
need to develop ideas to improve organizational
efficiency and effectiveness. They focus on the
personal motives and interests of others rather than
the common interests of the team and the
organization [20, 24, 30, 31].
2.5 Laissez-Faire Leadership
Transactional Leadership refers to the lower needs
of people, in needs theory terms [32], whereas
Transformational Leadership is concerned with
higher needs. However, the two types of leadership,
despite their differences, do not contradict each
other, but act as complementary, mutually
reinforcing ideas of leaders. Clearly, the
characteristics of transformational leadership lead to
better outcomes for organizations, if these elements
coexist with transactional leadership, according to
Bass' so-called "augmentation hypothesis" [24, 30,
31]. Transactional Leadership” has been established
theoretically which consists of three important
qualities:
a) Contingent Rewards which includes accepting
exchange payments in return for effort,
promising to reward good performance, and
compensating for achievements. Employees
who have not succeeded as expected are
"penalized" in the form of sanctions. The
entire relationship between leader and follower
is governed by the established transaction
principle, which is the reward for good
performance and adverse consequences in
return for poor performance [20, 22, 30].
b) Management by exception-active assumes that
the leader keeps others constantly guided by
him, identifies deviations from the rules and
makes the best corrective action [20, 22, 30].
c) Management by passive-exception considers
that the leader intervenes only in extreme cases
where standards are not respected (basically

one step under Laissez-Faire Leadership [20,
22, 30].
Transformational and Transactional Leadership
Types, although different, do not compete with each
other, but are complementary forms of leadership.
These two leadership styles can coexist in the same
leader but at different levels. Leaders, for example,
may exhibit both transformational and transactional
features, but they manifest these features in varying
amounts and intensity so that one style appears more
distinct than another. Empirical studies aimed at
testing the validity of Bass's Multifactor Leadership
Theory have shown a strong positive correlation that
exists between Transformational and Transactional
Leadership Types [10, 16, 22, 23, 33, 34].
This type of leadership is non-existent and non-
existent leadership that avoids decision-making,
does not exercise power, and denies responsibility.
Laissez-faire leaders are not informed of their
duties, they do not decide, do not guide, and do not
intervene if problems arise. They let other people do
their job any way they want, regardless of the results
that come with it [20, 22, 30].
Laissez-faire leadership is a negative component of
the Multifactor Leadership model. Several empirical
studies studying this kind of leader behavior have
shown a strong negative correlation that exists
between Laissez-faire Leadership and the other two
types of Leadership [15, 16, 20, 22].
2.6 Self-Efficacy
Self-efficacy is a person's perspective on his ability
to direct and carry out a number of actions to
achieve a certain level of performance [35-39]. In
other words, it is a holistic view of the individual
about his or her believed capacity to perform a task.
For example, a math teacher's belief that he or she
can successfully teach calculus to a class of twelfth
graders is an efficacy assessment. Similarly,
principals with high self-efficacy may believe that
they can have a positive effect on student
achievement or they may increase the emphasis on
academic learning in schools. Perception of self-
efficacy is oriented towards the future to be able to
achieve a certain level of performance.
Belief in efficacy is not a fixed character in the
individual, but belief in efficacy is an active belief
system and can be developed based on what is
experienced in context [35]. Therefore, self-efficacy
is changeable and may vary depending on the
context and specificity of the task. So that self-
efficacy varies in existence. There are individual
self-efficacy, group efficacy, and efficacy in an
organization. In the school context, teacher self-
efficacy beliefs can be defined as individual
teachers' beliefs in their ability to perform certain
teaching tasks at a certain level of quality in certain
situations [40].
In an attempt to clarify some misconceptions about
the definition of teacher self-efficacy, it is stated
that self-efficacy beliefs are task and situation-
specific, in the sense that efficacy beliefs are not
believed to be individual traits [41], but rather an
active and learned belief system. experienced in
context [40]
2.6.1 Teacher Self Efficacy and Teacher
Collective Efficacy
As defined by Bandura that self-efficacy is
perceived as belief in one's ability to organize and
carry out the course of action required to produce a
given achievement or personal belief that one is
capable of doing what is required to complete a task.
at a certain level of quality [42]. Teacher self-
efficacy is defined as teachers' individual beliefs in
their ability to perform certain teaching tasks at a
certain level of quality in certain situations [40].
Collective teacher efficacy is a particular form of
self-efficacy in which the target of belief is the
organization to which the individual belongs. It is
the perception of teachers in schools that overall
faculty efforts will have a positive effect on students
[43]. Collective teacher efficacy is linked to
teachers' influence over school decisions [44] and
inspires teachers' willingness to help one another to
meet school goals [45].
A study on Principal Leadership and Teacher
Efficacy involving 328 participants was conducted
“to examine the relationship between principals'
instructional leadership behaviors with teacher self-
efficacy and collective efficacy, and also to observe
the direct and indirect effects, through teachers' self-
efficacy, on instructional leadership on the
collective efficacy of teachers [46]. The principal's
instructional leadership behavior has a positive and
significant effect on teacher self-efficacy. This study
reveals that instructional leadership affects
collective efficacy indirectly through teacher self-
efficacy [46].
A study involving 366 teachers who were grouped
into four based on years of service: 0-3 years, 4-7
years, 8-14 years, and >15 years concluded that
three of the eleven principal behaviors had a

relationship which is significant with teacher
efficacy. The three behaviors are: (a) modeling
instructional expectations, (b) communication, and
(c) providing contingent rewards. For those with 0-3
years of teaching, modeling instructional
expectations predict teacher efficacy; for those aged
4-7 years, modeling of instructional and
communication expectations predicts teacher
efficacy; for those aged 8-14, it is communication,
consideration, and modeling of instructional
expectations in this order that influences their
success, and for those over 15 it is an inspiring
teacher. The study concludes that building teacher
efficacy should be approached in different ways
when working with teachers at different levels of
teaching experience. [47, 48].
The results showed that the contribution of
transformational leadership style to the explanation
of personal teacher efficacy was not statistically
significant when work-related variables were
controlled for in the Pearson Test of English (PTE)
analysis. The main conclusion is that the
relationship between personal teacher efficacy and
principal's leadership style is somewhat
complicated, but is demonstrated by teacher
satisfaction on the job. These findings do not verify
causation but rather suggest positive work
experiences that increase teacher satisfaction may
contribute to increased PTE. Transformational
leaders are more likely to form the types of work
circumstances that allow for individual satisfaction
and, therefore, allow PTE to thrive [48].
2.6.2 School Leadership, Teacher Efficacy, and
Student Achievement
Research on teacher efficacy and student
achievement shows that a teacher who exhibits high
self-efficacy, is organized, open to new ideas that
relate to student needs, is less cursing when students
make mistakes, is more confident in their teaching
and is more likely to use strategic strategies.
affirmative class management [49-51]. Other studies
have linked teacher efficacy to student outcomes,
showing that students perform better on
standardized tests than their peers when taught by a
teacher with a high score on self-efficacy compared
to when taught by a teacher with lower efficacy
scores [49, 52, 53].
Previous studies have linked school leadership style
to teacher efficacy. Ross and Gray [54] claims that
by setting worthy goals, clarifying standards, and
actions of teacher layers of student outcomes, a
principal influences teacher self-assessment which
contributes to success. The principal understands the
existence of teachers and students as followers to be
able to increase efficacy in order to achieve school
goals.
Teacher efficacy, defined as teachers' belief in their
ability to have a positive effect on student learning,
has been associated with student achievement,
student motivation, and teacher classroom
management strategies [55]. Further research
provided evidence that principals significantly
influence teachers' experiences in their work and
impact teachers' efforts [56, 57]. Support is needed
for the idea that principals' leadership style may be a
significant influencing factor on teachers' personal
self-efficacy [58]. There is evidence in research that
effective principals improve student achievement
and also that there is a positive relationship between
high levels of teacher self-efficacy and increased
student achievement [47, 59].
3 Methods
3.1 Research Design
This survey is an ex-post facto descriptive study on
the effect of multifactor leadership on self-efficacy.
The Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire was used
as a research tool through a five-point Likert scale.
Transformational (TRASF), Transactional
(TRANSC), and Laissez-faire (LF) Leadership
Types were measured by the MLQ/6S form of Bass
and Avolio [60], while self-efficacy was measured
by the principal's self-efficacy from
TschannenMoran, Gareis SE1 was Management
self-efficacy, SE2 was Learning Leadership, SE3
was Moral Leadership self-efficacy [61].
3.2 Population and Sample
The sample is part of a number of characteristics in
the population to be studied. It can be concluded
that the sample is part of the population to be
studied and represents the characteristics of the
population. The sample in this study amounted to
140 teachers in Pesawaran Regency, Lampung
Province.
3.3 Data Analysis
The data of this research is Confirmatory Factor
Analysis (CFA) data. CFA is part of SEM
(Structural Equation Modeling) to test how a
measured variable or indicator is good in describing
or representing a number of a factor. In CFA factors
are also known as constructs. Measurement theory is
used to determine how variables are measured,

systematically and logically describe a construct that
is displayed in a model [62].
Determining whether an indicator is valid or not can
use the magnitude of the correlation coefficient
between the indicator/construct score and the total
score. This score indicates the magnitude of the
factor load. A good construct is if it has a load factor
of at least 0.30. So, if the value of 0.30, it is said to
be a valid indicator [63, 64]
After the measurement model is formulated, the
next step is to determine the loading factor of each
variable. Determining factor loading in confirmatory
factor analysis is the same as determining factor
loading in exploratory factor analysis. The trick is
the Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE)
method. After obtaining the loading factor, the next
stage is testing the measurement model which is
seen based on the goodness of fit value obtained by
the model.
Schumacker and Lomax [65] suggested that in using
CFA, at least 3 factors must be determined and the
latent construct relationship was based on a
theoretical basis. The model must be identifiable
and have a unique value to facilitate estimation. The
measurement of the model with CFA is determined
by the difference between the indicators and the
construct and the specification of the relationship
between the observed and the variable whether it is
reflexive or formative. In order for estimates to be
accurate and unbiased, data normality and the
amount of asymptotic data are required [66].
3.4 Model-fit Criteria
Determining model fit in CFA requires examining
several goodness-of-fit indices. One of the criteria is
the model fit summary (CMIN/DF) test, the
Likelihood Ratio Test statistic which is expressed as
a chi-square statistic (χ2). Large sample sizes often
result in chi-square statistics resulting in statistically
significant differences between the sample data and
the hypothesized model. Because CFA is a large
sample statistic, the chi-square statistic is often a
poor measure of model fit. Marsh and Hocevar [67]
recommend the Likelihood Ratio Test Statistic to be
in the 2-5 range to show a reasonable fit.
Given the limitations of chi-squared for measuring
model fit, statistics and other indices were used to
evaluate model fit. The Root Mean Square Error of
Approximation (RMSEA) measures how well the
hypothesized model will fit the population
covariance matrix. RMSEA value < .05 indicates a
good fit and value < .08 indicates a reasonable
approximation error in the population [68].
Reporting the 90% confidence interval RMSEA
helps in interpreting the model fit, as well as the
closeness of the fit measured by the probability
value, PCLOSE, where a value >.05 indicates a
good fit with the population [68]. Standardized Root
Mean Square Residual (SRMR) represents the mean
residual between the hypothesized model and the
sample data, and the smaller the SRMR value the
better with 0 indicating a perfect fit, < .05 reflecting
a model fit [68], and < .08 is recognized as a good
match [69]. The Comparative Fit Index (CFI) takes
into account sample size and provides a complete
measure of data covariance, with values ranging
from 0 to 1.00. Hu and Bentler [69] recommend that

4.2 Discussion
Regarding to question number 1what leadership has
the most positive influence on self-efficacy?
Refers to all autput Amos data, it is only trasactional
leadership effects positively to principal self-
efficacy. Reffeing to Standardized Total Effects and
Standardized Direct Effects, descendingly the
effects are transactional to learning leadership is
2.479, to management is 2,131, and to moral is
1,894.
Transactional leaders motivate followers by
exchanging rewards for services renderedfor
example, principals provide new teaching materials
or increase planning time for teachers so they can
institute new curricular programs. When
subordinates do their jobs in organizations such as
schools, transactional leaders recognize what
followers want from work and try to give them what
they want. They exchange rewards and promises of
reward for effort and respond to followers' self-
interest directly. Transactional leaders pursue cost-
benefit, economic trade-offs to satisfy current
followers' material and psychological needs in
exchange for contracted services rendered by
subordinates [71].
Transactional leadership is considered to have three
components. Contingent reward leadership refers to
leader behavior that focuses on clarifying roles and
task requirements and providing followers with
rewards contingent on follower performance [23]. In
other words, this subtype of leadership behavior
gives followers what they want in exchange for
what the leader wants [24]. Management by active
exception means that leaders maintain a high level
of vigilance to ensure that standards are met. That
is, leaders actively monitor performance and take
corrective action when problems become apparent.
Management by passive exception means that
leaders fail to intervene until the problem becomes
serious. These leaders wait to take action until an
error or other performance issue occurs and is called
in for attention. However, this study uses a 6S
questionnaire where passive management-by-
exception aspiration agrees with laissez-faire [72,
73].
Regarding question 2 what leadership has the
negative influence on self-efficacy?
a. Transformational leadership
All output Amos calculation show that
transformational leadership negatively effects the
three kinds of self-efficacy. Referring to
Standardized Total Effects and Standardized Direct
Effects the scores effect descendingly are -1,321 for
instructional leadership, -1,311 management, and -
,826 for moral leadership.
Leithwood, Jantzi [75] builds ideas using
transformational and transactional leadership
concepts to formulate an eight-dimensional model
for an educational setting-builds a school vision,
sets school goals, provides intellectual stimulation,
offers individualized support, models best practices,
and important organizational values, demonstrates
performance expectations higher education, creating
a productive school culture, and developing
structures to encourage participation in school
decisions. The framework is based on two
generalizations. First, transformational leadership in
schools directly affects school outcomes such as
teachers' perceptions of student achievement and
student grades. Second, transformational leadership
indirectly influenced these outcomes by influencing
three critical psychological characteristics of staff
perceived school characteristics, teacher
commitment to change, and organizational
learningwhich in turn influenced outcomes. Based
on the findings of the four-year study the school
made a variety of structural changes. So it can be
concluded that transformational leadership depends
on paying attention to all aspects of the model,
requires a unique formulation in schools on the basis
of individual considerations, and represents a
contingency approach [76].
To be successful it is necessary to extend their
model and call it a core practice of successful
leadership. Basically, they have created an open
social system model that includes input, throughput,
and outcome variables with transformational
leadership being the key process [77, 78].
A number of educational researchers on
transformational leadership have found that
transformational leaders have a greater positive
effect on their educational organizations than
transactional leaders [79-81]. Marks and Printy [82]
found that transformational and school-wide
instructional leadership was positively related to
high-quality pedagogy, and that high-level student
performance was also evident. This means that
transformational leadership cannot be run alone.
Moolenaar, Daly [83] found that the centrality of
principals in social networks enabled
transformational leadership to develop a positive
climate of innovation. More generally, Leithwood
and Jantzi [84] reviewed research in the educational

environment and drew four conclusions about the
effects of transformational leadership: 1) Its effect
on perceived organizational effectiveness is
significant and large. 2) The effect on objective and
independent indicators of organizational
effectiveness is positive and significant, but small in
size. 3) The effect on student outcomes measured
independently is promising but limited in number.
4) Its effect on student engagement in schools is
modest but uniformly positive.
In a more recent study of the effects of
transformational leadership in schools, Leithwood
and Sun [85] concluded that the new study should
broaden the range of mediating and moderating
variables studied and urge qualitative researchers to
refine the most productive forms of transactional
leadership. in schools.
Transformational leadership is being used widely
and is generally supported by various research
studies. The good news is that transformational
leadership models can provide intellectual capital
for educational leaders as they face the challenges of
modernizing their school organizations. As has been
explained in many books about making fundamental
changes it is usually fraught with ambiguity and
resistance. But transformational leadership offers
some promise in overcoming these difficulties. To
lead a transformational initiative, however, requires
a wide range of abilities, skills, and behaviors that
can be developed, taught, and learned [86].
Some evidence supports the hypothesis that
transformational leadership can be enhanced
through formal training [87]. Therefore, current and
future leaders should consider whether the training
program will increase their capacity to transform
schools. However, transformational negatively
affects perceptions of self-efficacy. Therefore, the
application of transformational leadership must be
carried out carefully and needs a lot of
consideration, especially with regard to the level of
motivation of followers. It is proven that
transformational leadership negatively affects self-
efficacy.
Most transactional leadership situations can be very
effective. Contingent reward behavior in particular
provides a solid foundation for effective leadership.
However, increased effort, effectiveness, and job
satisfaction result when transactional leadership is
coupled with transformational leadership [74].
b. Laissezz-Faire Leadership
All output Amos calculation show that laissez-faire
leadership negatively effects the three kinds of self-
efficacy. Referring to Standardized Total Effects
and Standardized Direct Effects the scores effect
descendingly are -,615 for instructional leadership,
-,334 management, and -,315 for moral leadership.
Laissez-faire leadership characterizes this type of
leadership as non-transactional with followers. For
example, laissez-faire leaders avoid expressing their
views or taking action on important issues, failing to
make or at least delaying decisions, ignoring
responsibilities, not providing feedback, and
allowing the authority to remain dormant. It is
essentially avoidance or lack of leadership, and the
result is the most passive and the least effective.
Examples are principals who stay in the office,
involve teachers and students as little as possible,
show minimal attention to student learning and
development or teacher needs, and allow school
structures and processes to continue in the same way
[86].
Laissez-faire leaders offer little or no guidance to
group members and leave decision-making to group
members [88]. However, we need to examine the
behavior of leaders who delegate tasks to followers.
Delegating behavior is identical to laissez-faire
leadership behavior. Delegation is a leadership
behavior that researchers and practitioners
champion as a useful management tool. Delegation
can inadvertently trigger subordinates' perceptions
of ineffective laissez-faire, depending on the gender
of the subordinates and their perception of the
competence of the trustworthy manager [89].
Not all followers dislike laissez-faire leadership.
Research shows that seven out of ten children prefer
a laissez-faire leader to an autocratic just as much as
they prefer confusion and disorganization to the
strictness and rigidity that exists in an autocratic
style. Children under the laissez-faire leadership
style displayed more aggressive, hostile, and
different behavior as compared to their peers under
other leaderships. They also display hostility or
jokes that create cracks in the work environment and
hostility towards others. Those in the democratic
style of leadership showed less aggressiveness and
behaved differently when brought under the
influence of the autocratic style leader. Even under a
laissez-faire leadership style, children act more
aggressively than under a democratic style [88].
Children who like laissez-faire are characterized by
high self-efficacy. They have a passion, passion, and
energy that seems limitless. Children with high
efficacy generally also have good self-regulation as
well. For a person like this, it fits under leadership
that gives little direction. This is because self-
efficacy contributes to motivation by determining
what goals individuals set for themselves, how
much effort they expend, how long they persist in

the face of adversity, and their resilience to failure
[90] .
In the general organization and management
literature, empirical studies of self-efficacy have
yielded consistent results. Self-efficacy is associated
with work-related performance such as productivity,
coping with difficult tasks, career choice, learning
and achievement, and the ability to adapt to new
technologies [91]. Similar results are seen in
educational settings. Self-efficacy research in
schools tends to focus on one of two areas or
approaches. The first study group examined the
effect of student and teacher self-efficacy on various
indicators of motivation and achievement. The
general finding is that self-efficacy is positively
related to student achievement [92], course grades
[93], motivasi siswa [94], adoption of innovation by
teachers [95, 96], supervisory teacher competency
rating [97], teacher class management strategy [98],
and is a strong predictor of behavior in general [99].
In addition, experimental studies consistently find
that changing self-efficacy beliefs can lead to better
use of cognitive strategies and higher levels of
academic achievement for math, reading, and
writing tasks [100].
To summarize, self-efficacy is an important
motivational factor that influences a number of
behavioral and performance outcomes. Self-efficacy
is learned through various experiences and is
dynamic; it can change over time as new
information and experiences are gained: 1)
Individuals who have stronger beliefs about their
abilities are more successful and persistent in their
efforts; 2) Individuals tend to avoid tasks and
situations that exceed their capacity; 3) Individuals
seek activities that they value they are capable of
handling; 4) Individuals develop self-efficacy
through the experience of mastery, modeling,
persuasion, and physiological arousal. Building
teacher efficacy should be approached in different
ways based on the motivational characteristics of
followers [100].
5 Conclusion
A person's leadership style is influenced by the
majority of his followers. Transformational
leadership places more emphasis on motivation and
inspiration, transactional leadership emphasizes
more on transactions, and laissez-faire on
delegation. Only transactional leadership that
positively affects self-efficacy shows that the
principal thinks and acts on the basis of the
transaction: "I do what and what will I get".
Referring to Maslow's theory of motivation, it
means that principals work a lot with teachers who
are at the stage of security needs. Referring to
McClelland's theory of motivation, it is still at the
level of material needs for achievement. Referring
to Herzberg's motivation theory, it is still at the level
of hygiene factor. Referring to Alderfer's theory of
motivation (ERG) it is still at a lower level of
counseling needs. Meanwhile, transformational
leadership is more about inspiring and motivating.
To achieve the practice of delegated leadership will
be much more complicated. Delegative or laissez-
faire leadership emphasizes “I get something as a
logical consequence because I do something”.
While transactional leadership puts forward "I do
something to get something".
Implication
1. The laissez-faire leadership style is suitable for
followers who are at the top level (5 self-
actualization or self-fulfillment to achieve
maximum potential for self-development,
creativity, and self-expression) according to
Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory; at the level
of recognition and achievement according to
Herzberg's hygiene-motivation theory; at level 5
(from the bottom) namely the level of self-
actualization according to Alderfer's theory of
motivation (ERG); and at the level of
achievement (getting done) according to the
theory of motivational needs obtained from
McClelland.
2. Transformational leadership style is suitable for
followers who are at levels three and four
according to Maslow's hierarchy of needs
theory, at the level of achievement, recognition,
and the work itself, responsibility, and progress
according to Herzberg's theory; at the level of
relatedness needs related to the importance of
maintaining interpersonal relationships. These
needs are based on social interaction with others
and are aligned with the level of needs related to
love/possession (such as friendship, family, and
sexual intimacy) and needs related to self-
esteem (earning respect from others) according
to Alderfer's theory of motivation ( ERG); and
at the level of power (having influence over
others) according to the theory of motivational
needs obtained from McClelland.
3. Transactional leadership style is suitable for
followers who are at Level 2: safety and
security protection against danger and threats
Freedom from fear, anxiety, and chaos needs for
structure, order, law, boundaries, and stability
