Abstract

This study utilizes Full Range Leadership (FRL) model to examine the relationship between students’ gender stereotypes and perceived teacher leadership behaviour. This study adopted Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ), which is developed with the model to measure the transformational and transactional leadership behaviour as perceived by the students. A sample of 800 students from all the eight departments in the Faculty of Education in the University of Ibadan, Nigeria (482 female and 308 male) was drawn. The data were collected from both the undergraduate and postgraduate students, and they were analyzed through multiple regression. The result revealed gender discrimination in some constructs of the teacher leadership behaviour as rated by students.
