Bu çalışmanın amacı ilköğretim okul müdürlerinin iş doyum düzeylerini ve bu düzeyin cinsiyet, yaş, meslekte ve yöneticilikte geçen süre, eğitim düzeyi, sendika üyeliği, yöneticilik görevinden dolayı ödül alıp almama ve görev yapılan yerleşim yeri değişkenlerine göre farklılık gösterip göstermediğini incelemektir. Bu amaçla 2010-2011 öğretim yılında Denizli ilindeki 338 ilköğretim okul müdürünün tümüne Kişisel Bilgi Formu ve Minnesota İş Doyum Ölçeği’nden oluşan bir veri toplama aracı uygulanmış, geri dönen ve tüm soruları yanıtlayan 198 ilköğretim okul müdürü araştırmanın örneklemini oluşturmuştur. Elde edilen bulgulara göre, Denizli İli’nde çalışan ilköğretim okul müdürlerinin iş doyum düzeyi ortalaması 3.64 olup “oldukça memnunum” aralığına girmektedir. Okul müdürlerinin iş doyum düzeyleri cinsiyet, yaş, meslekte geçen süre, yöneticilikte geçen süre, eğitim durumu, sendika üyeliği ve yöneticilik görevinden dolayı ödül alma değişkenlerine göre farklılık göstermezken, görev yapılan yerleşim yeri değişkenine göre iş doyum düzeyleri farklılık göstermekte, şehir merkezinden köylere gidildikçe iş doyum düzeyi düşmektedir.
The aim of this study is to determine the job satisfaction level of primary school principals. Independent variables of the study are gender, age, seniority, duration on management task, level of education, professional union membership, having any prize on management and school location (city center, county or village). The descriptive survey method has been selected in order to answer the research questions. All school principals working for Denizli province primary schools have been considered as the sample of the study. The data collection instrument was administered to 338 principals through e-mail, but 198 questionnaires (58% of population) has been filled out properly and returned. Analyses yielded no significant differences among job satisfaction scores of the respondents in regard to gender, age, seniority, duration in management task, level of education, professional union membership, having prize or not on management. However, there was a significant difference among the principals’ job satisfaction levels in terms of the school location. When the location of school where principals works shift from the city center to rural areas, their job satisfaction levels tend to decrease. The principals working for the schools in the city center have the higher job satisfaction than the principals working for the schools located in the counties and villages. The least job satisfaction level was found in the group which works in the villages’ schools. Although the overall job satisfaction level of school principals was found “fairly satisfied”, lack of percentage of “highly satisfied” group and the groups expressing dissatisfaction in some degree show that there are some factors reducing the job satisfaction of the school principals. Some analytic research focusing related to these factors must be done. This study revealed that the principals working in the villages’ schools have the lowest job satisfaction level. Thus, some measures must be taken by the authority for making the conditions more attractive for the school principals who work in rural areas.
