dc.description.abstractThis study was designed to measure and explain job satisfaction among secondary level teachers in Kano, Nigeria through a questionnaire instrument. The study measured (1) the degree of satisfaction among the teachers with ten components of job satisfaction: recognition, achievement, work itself, advancement, responsibility, salary, administrative policies, supervision, interpersonal relations, and working conditions; (2) differences in satisfaction with the ten components between teachers according to qualifications, sex, age, experience, reasons for entering the teaching profession, and school area; (3) differences in overall satisfaction between teachers according to these classifications. Population A total of 356 Nigerian teachers from 30 secondary institutions selected at random constituted the sample. 1 Usable questionnaires were obtained from 284 respondents. Procedure The procedure included an extensive review of the literature dealing with job satisfaction. The items of this study's instrument were selected from the list of job satisfaction items used by various researchers as relevant to the Nigerian educational system. The instrument was comprised of a three-part questionnaire: (1) six items of demographic information; (2) fifty-eight items divided into ten components or scales for assessing job satisfaction; and (3) additional free responses from the respondents concerning other items or factors not covered by the questionnaire. Questionnaires were personally delivered and collected. Degree of satisfaction was determined by the response frequency scores; high satisfaction scores were interpreted as "satisfaction," high dissatisfaction scores were interpreted as "dissatisfaction," and high scores between the two as "undecided." The discriminant function analysis and multivariate analysis of variance were the statistical procedures applied to test the hypothesis of equal population means between groups of the six demographic classifications. A three-way analysis of variance was used to test the six alternative hypotheses.en_US
