This cross-national study comparatively analyzed determinants and outcomes of teachers' work engagement and organizational commitment in Turkey and the United States. Informed by the relevant literature, teachers' organizational identification, perceived organizational support, and principal authentic leadership were the determinants. The outcome variables included teachers' organizational citizenship behaviors and counterproductive work behaviors. A simple cluster random sampling was used to sample teachers. Sampling inclusion criteria were school configuration and school type. After removing incomplete cases and outliers, the respective samples included 319 teachers and 30 school principals from Ankara, Turkey and 192 teachers and 17 school principals from Arkansas, the United States. A multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA), bootstrapping, a repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA), repeated-measures multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA), and structural equation modeling procedures were conducted via the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software and AMOS 22 program. The findings of the study showed that the origin of country was a significant differentiating factor of the study variables after controlling for experience, level of education, and level of school taught. The findings also demonstrated that different factors were influential in predicting teachers' work engagement and organizational commitment in each country. Teachers' perceived organizational support and organizational identification significantly predicted teachers' work engagement and organizational commitment in the United States. Similarly, teachers' organizational identification was a significant predictor of teachers' work engagement and organizational commitment in Turkey. However, teachers' perceived organizational support was not a significant predictor of teachers' work engagement in Turkey. Principal authentic leadership did not predict teachers' work engagement and organizational commitment in either country. The study findings also showed that teachers' work engagement significantly predicted teachers' counterproductive work behaviors in the United States, but it did not predict teachers' counterproductive work behaviors in Turkey. Similarly, teachers' organizational commitment significantly influenced teachers' counterproductive work behaviors in Turkey, while it did not influence teachers' counterproductive work behaviors in the United States. Moreover, findings showed that principals rated themselves significantly higher than their respective teachers in terms of authentic leadership both in Turkey and the United States. Based on the study findings, conclusions were drawn; implications for policy, practice, and research were discussed; and recommendations were offered.
