“…There have been various studies encountered in the relevant body of literature where relationships between teachers' approaches to curriculum design and a number of other variables such as their curriculum fidelity (Burul, 2018), their predispositions regarding the philosophy of education (Baş & Şentürk, 2019;Doğan-Dolapçıoğlu, 2020;Kozikoğlu & Uygun, 2018), classroom activities for teaching critical thinking skills (Pehlivan and Şahin-Taşkın, 2020), and beliefs regarding the profession of teaching and personal responsibility (Eren & Çetin, 2019) were scrutinized. In addition, there are a number of studies (Baş, 2014;Cheung & Ng, 2000;Jenkins, 2009;Karaman & Bakaç, 2018;Şahin, 2020;Tanrıverdi & Apak, 2013;Ünsal & Korkmaz, 2017) in which teachers' approaches to curriculum design were examined as the sole variable. There are also a large number of studies where the relationship between teachers' classroom management styles and many other variables such as pupil control ideologies (Yılmaz, 2009), perceptions of democratic values (Yılmaz, 2011), attitudes towards the rights of the child (Dönmez, 2015), lifestyles (Sezer et al, 2017), and attitudes towards multicultural education (Debbağ & Fidan, 2020) was investigated.…”
