Job Satisfaction Survey: A Confirmatory Factor Analysis Based on Secondary School Teachers’ Sample

Abstract

Despite a number of studies in the field of job satisfaction, there are still some problematic areas left. A question,which still lacks explanation, is whether specific sample may be evaluated using instruments which wereprimarily developed based on a different type of a sample than the one under research. With regard to theproblematic area, we generated the purpose for our research.The purpose of the present study is to examine Job Satisfaction Survey’s (JSS) relevance for estimation of jobsatisfaction in teacher population.Results of the standard Confirmatory Factor Analysis of the teachers’ sample did not support the existence of 9facets, suggesting that some of the JSS’s scales do not reflect teachers’ job satisfaction. The best model in thepresent study was determined to be a three facet model, including promotion, supervision and nature of work.The obtained research results, limitations and recommendations are discussed.
