Auf diese Aufgabe müssen Schulleiter*innen in Aus- und Fortbildungen vorbereitet werden. Der vorliegende Beitrag untersucht in einem längsschnittlichen Design Effekte der Fortbildungsreihe Werkstatt „Schule leiten“. Die Teilnehmer*innen bewerten die Werkstatt zumeist positiv und es zeigen sich geringe bis moderate Veränderungen in ihrem selbstberichteten beruflichen Handeln. Schulleiter*innen mit wenigen Jahren Leitungserfahrung berichten dabei über die größten Zuwächse. Der Beitrag diskutiert Implikationen für die Forschung und Fortbildung von Schulleiter*innen. N2 - Empirical studies and legal documents of school law highlight the importance of principals for school improvement. Professional development (PD) needs to be provided for principals in this field accordingly. This longitudinal study investigates effects of a PD program addressing principals’ self-reported skills that are related to school improvement. Participants are highly satisfied with the PD program and they report small to moderate changes of their leadership behaviour. Principals with little experience on the job report higher gains of their leadership than highly experienced principals. Implications for future research and professional development are discussed.

In this article, we compare the word-order hypothesis with a competing one, according to which word-order alternations arise as a consequence of a prosodic constraint: ‘Avoid stress on given expressions’. Based on novel experimental and modeling data, we conclude that the prosodic hypothesis is more adequate than the word-order hypothesis. Yet we also show that combining the strengths of both hypotheses provides the best fit for the data. Methodologically, our article is based on gradient acceptability judgments and multiple regression, which allows us to evaluate whether violations of generalizations like ‘Given precedes new’ or ‘Given lacks stress’ lead to a consistent decrease in acceptability and to quantify the size of their respective effects. Focusing on the empirical adequacy of such generalizations rather than on specific theoretical implementations also makes it possible to bridge the gap between different linguistic traditions and to directly compare predictions emerging from formal and functional approaches.
