30. Analysis of Scientific Papers on Organizational Uncertainty in Education and School Administration (1990–2016)

Organizational uncertainty affects all administration processes and functions whereas perception of uncertainty affects not only organizational administration and functions, but may also adversely affect individual performance. Consequently, a review of the existing papers related to organizational uncertainty and developing suggestions on the issue will direct the course of solutions to be found for this situation. A secondary purpose of this review is researching the titles, types, contents, methods, findings and comments, conclusions, and suggestions of the scientific papers related to organizational uncertainty in education and school administration in the period from 1990 onward. The research was designed with a qualitative research model, and a document examination technique was used. The data were obtained using document analysis. Content analysis was used for interpreting the documents. The year 1990 is a critical milestone in the study since it was a period when social and political events were being experienced rapidly and intensely in both a national and an international context. Since it is of significance to discuss the studies conducted in this period and their outcomes, the year of 1990 was selected as the date of commencement.
