Abstract/Summary

This study analyzes and predicts the teachers' preferred styles of supervision in the three M.I.C. schools during the school year 1988-1989. The study utilized the descriptive analytical and correlational method of research to determine the demographic profile of the teachers and the relationships between the five supervisory styles: traditional, laissez-faire, human relations, democratic, clinical with the independent variables namely: age, civil status, educational attainment, years of teaching experience, department level, SES and personality type. The population of the study consisted of all teachers, presently teaching, in the three M.I.C. schools for the school year 1988-1989. All the three schools, namely the Immaculate Conception Academy (ICA) in Greenhills, Immaculate Conception Academy of Manila (ICAM) in Tondo and Immaculate Heart of Mary (IHMA) in Mati, Davao Oriental, offer pre-elementary, elementary and high school courses. Actual number of respondents totaled to 157.Demographic data of the teachers of the three M.I.C. Schools were gathered through a questionnaire. Data on the teachers' personality profile were gathered from the results of the standardized test on personality type indicator designed by Myers Briggs, while the extent to which the teachers' preferred supervisory style were ascertained from their responses to a survey questionnaire designed by the researcher. Multiple correlation was utilized to determine if there were significant relationships between the teachers demographic factors and the five supervisory styles. Multiple regression through stepwise regression was utilized to predict the teachers' preferred supervisory styles. The result of the study showed the teachers preference for supervisory styles is positive because they do not negate the other styles of supervision. There was no best predictor among the given individual variables for the teachers' preference of supervisory styles if these were taken in combination. However if taken singly, the best predictor could be SE
