Abstract: The aim of this study was to investigate whether school climate and social-emotional learning impact teacher commitment. The sample included 664 public schoolteachers from British Columbia and Ontario in Canada. Participants completed an online questionnaire about teacher commitment, school climate, and social-emotional learning. Binary logistic regression analyses showed that positive school climates significantly predicted three forms of teacher commitment: greater general professional commitment, future professional commitment, and organizational commitment. Of the school climate variables, student relations and collaboration among staff predicted commitment. In addition, stronger beliefs and integration of social-emotional learning predicted two types of teacher commitment: greater general professional commitment and organizational commitment. Of the social-emotional learning variables, the support and promotion of a social-emotional learning culture across the school and comfort with and regular implementation of social-emotional learning in the classroom predicted greater teacher commitment. Implications for practice and research are discussed. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
