Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2022, Vol 4, Issue 5

Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the predictor variables of job satisfaction of mathematics teachers as either achievement, power, or affiliation. The one hundred (100) randomly selected secondary mathematics teachers teaching in the First District of Iloilo for the school year 2019-2020 served as the respondents of the study. The data were obtained through a survey questionnaire employing mean, Pearson's product moment correlation, and multiple regression analysis as statistical tools. Results revealed that secondary mathematics teachers had above average level of need for achievement and affiliation, average level of need for power and high level of job satisfaction. There was a positive substantial correlation between mean scores in achievement and job satisfaction, between achievement and affiliation and between power and affiliation but there was a positive low correlation between mean scores in affiliation and job satisfaction and between achievement and power. Achievement was the strongest predictor of the job satisfaction, while power and affiliation were not good predictors of job satisfaction of secondary mathematics teachers.
