In the study, it was aimed to reveal organizational factors affecting the levels of organizational cynicism (antecedents) and influenced by organizational cynicism levels (consequences / outcomes) of teachers / lecturers working in primary schools, junior high schools, high schools and universities in Turkey. For this purpose, findings obtained from independent quantitative studies on the subject are combined and interpreted by a meta-analysis method which aims to bring together the results of independent and similar researches in a consistent and harmonious way. The existence of a large number of researches in educational institutions that have reached different conclusions about organizational cynicism predecessors and outcomes leads to the need to evaluate these research results as a whole. In the study, it was determined that organizational cynicism antecedents and their results were analyzed separately, and as a result there was a strong negative correlation between organizational cynicism and antecedent factors affecting cynicism, also a very weak and negative relationship with consequence factors influenced by organizational cynicism. In addition, the relationship between organizational cynicism and predecessor and successor factors has also been examined in terms of preliminary and successor sub-factors in which meta-analysis is included.
