Özet
This study aims to find the moderated mediation role of reflective thinking. It looks at the effect of teachers' creative thinking on innovation through entrepreneurship. This research adopts a quantitative approach, utilizing a descriptive and relational survey model. Four hundred and thirty-seven full-time teachers participated in the study. They were given questionnaires on creative thinking, reflective thinking, entrepreneurship, and innovation. Subsequently, empirical analyses were performed using a moderated mediation model. The research shows that teachers tend to have high scores in creative thinking, reflective thinking, entrepreneurship, and innovation. There is a positive and statistically significant relationship among these variables. Creative thinking indirectly boosts innovation through entrepreneurship. Reflective thinking moderates this process.
