Abstract

Despite the prevalence of feelings of alienation among students in higher education institutions, the existing research on student alienation has largely centered on school students and overlooked this pertinent issue among the students in higher education institutions. Building on self-determination theory, the current study proposes that teachers’ servant leadership is negatively related to students’ alienation from teacher, classmates and learning. Using two questionnaires on five point rating scale data was collected from 711 university students and analyzed using structural equation modeling in AMOS 28. The results show that all the hypothesized relationships were supported. Therefore, the study contributes to the different streams of literature and offers valuable novel insights for teachers and management for curbing feelings of alienation among students.
