Abstract: One of the most essential human resource management practices is performance evaluation. In this perspective, performance evaluations are notably more crucial in public schools, because teachers educate students who are forming the qualified human resources for the future. This study aims to reveal the mediating role of teachers' job engagement on the effect of schools' performance evaluation practices on teachers' job satisfaction in public schools. For this purpose, mediation analyses with traditional and modern approaches were conducted to cross-sectional data obtained from 516 teachers working in different public schools in the City of Mersin. Results of both used mediation analyses showed that performance evaluation practices in public schools have a positive effect on teachers' job satisfaction, and job engagement has a partial mediating role in this effect. All these findings were discussed in light of the literature, and suggestions are developed.
