Structural model reconstruction of transformational leadership and self-efficacy effects on teacher performance: a systematic review

The nationwide digitalization of teacher administration through the integration of the Platform Merdeka Mengajar (PMM) and the e-Kinerja performance system has triggered unprecedented psychological pressures and administrative workloads, leading to fluctuations in teacher performance. This study aims to reconstruct an integrative conceptual model of the contributions of school principals' transformational leadership and teacher self-efficacy to teacher performance using a theory-building Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. Guided by the PRISMA 2020 protocol, a rigorous literature search was conducted on Scopus, Web of Science, and Sinta 1–3 databases to identify peer-reviewed original articles published between 2016 and 2026. Study quality was appraised using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Critical Appraisal Checklist by two independent reviewers, achieving a highly reliable inter-rater agreement (κ=0.85). Qualitative-narrative synthesis of 38 selected articles demonstrates that transformational leadership has a consistently robust cumulative macro-effect correlation (r=0.441, p<0.001) on teacher performance. Furthermore, this study proves that self-efficacy does not merely act as a linear independent variable, but simultaneously functions as a cognitive mediator and contextual moderator (mediated-moderation) that dictates the direction and strength of leadership influence on performance. This reconstruction successfully resolves empirical gaps where the direct effect of transformational leadership was occasionally non-significant in micro-samples. This article formulates a novel structural model and four theoretical propositions to guide future primary quantitative research.

Learning quality factors associated with students' literacy and numeracy competencies: a systematic literature review

The low literacy and numeracy competence of Indonesian students is a serious concern, as reflected in the 2022 PISA score, which is still below the international average. Learning quality is a key factor suspected to significantly influence the development of these two basic competencies. This study aims to systematically analyze the influence of learning quality on improving literacy and numeracy competencies based on empirical literature studies. The research uses the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach with the PRISMA protocol. Literature searches were conducted on indexed databases (Scopus, ERIC, SINTA, Google Scholar) with keywords related to learning quality, literacy, and numeracy. Of the 896 initial articles, 38 met the inclusion criteria for further analysis. The analysis shows that the quality of learning has a significant influence on literacy and numeracy competence through various dimensions: (1) the quality of teacher-student interaction and relational-intentional pedagogy; (2) teachers' competence in compiling HOTS and AKM-based questions; (3) the implementation of the independent curriculum and contextual approach; (4) the use of innovative technology and learning media; (5) learning environment at home and school; and (6) teacher training and professional development. Optimizing learning quality through a holistic approach that includes improving teachers' pedagogic competence, strengthening the literacy-numeracy-based curriculum, and integrating technology has proven effective in improving students' literacy and numeracy competencies. This study recommends sustainable policies for teacher professional development and improvement of learning infrastructure.
