Abstract:
Effective service delivery of teachers has been a major factor to be considered in teaching and education at large. Because teacher's effectiveness plays a huge role in the life of students and all stakeholders. Hence, the study examined Psycho- demographic factors as determinants of effective service delivery among secondary school teachers n Oyo state Nigeria. Descriptive research design of correlation type was employed for the study while probability proportional to size (PPS) sampling was used to select two hundred (200) participants who were mainly public and private secondary school teachers in some selected schools in Oyo state. The result shows that there is high career resiliency perception of teachers in secondary schools in Oyo state supported with 3.64 which s greater than grand mean 3.01. However, there was no joint contribution f teachers demographics n the effective service delivery of Secondary School teachers in Oyo state, supported with (R) of 0.210 a multiple R square of 0.044, P< 0.05. Also, there was no significant relative contribution f teachers demographics prediction to the effective service delivery of secondary school teachers using standardized regression coefficient to determine the relative contribution of the demographic variables ( age, gender, school type, school climate), Gender Beta (0.14, t=1.846, P > 0.05), school type ( Beta = .0.131, t= 1.812, P> 0.05), Religion ( Beta= 0.076, t= .334, P> 0.05) and Age ( Beta= 0.060, t= .815, P> 0.05). However there was a joint contribution of school climate, teacher resilience and career decision self-efficacy predicted on the effective service delivery of Secondary school teachers in Oyo state supported with (R) of 0.880 a multiple R square of 0.715. There is also a significant relative contribution of the (school climate and teacher's resilience) to effective service delivery of secondary school teachers in Oyo state supported with Teacher's resilience (Beta= 0.417, t= 4.912 < 0.05) indicates most potent contributor to the prediction of Dependent variable, School climate (Beta= 0.264, t=3.408, P< 0.05). Moreover, there was a significant difference in the career decision self-efficacy of private and public secondary school teachers in Oyo state. Private school has mean value of 68.58 than public school mean value of 60.00. Based on the above findings, it is therefore recommended that there should be enlightenment, seminars, and training programs on teacher's effectiveness in teaching, and also funding(salary payment), and how teachers can deal with pressing issues of life, so as not to affect their effectiveness.
