The Effect of Intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation on The Job Satısfactıon: A Field Study

Abstract

Motivation, which means influencing individuals with emotional and cognitive aspects to fulfill their functions in prescribed quality and quantity, is a phenomenon with internal and external aspects. Job satisfaction, which is defined as the satisfaction that people feel from their jobs, is the whole of general attitudes and behaviors that show the peace and comfort of individuals towards working life. The job satisfaction of employees who want to get paid for their work and carry out their duties in a harmonious environment is likely to be affected by the motivation that increases the desire of the employees to do business. In this study, it is aimed to examine whether the motivation levels of the employees have an effect on their job satisfaction. For this purpose, a survey was conducted with university students studying at a state university in the Eastern Mediterranean Region, and research data were obtained from 410 participants who participated in the survey. Frequency, correlation and regression analyzes were performed with the SPSS program with the data obtained as a result of the survey. As a result of the research, it was found that there is a positive relationship between the intrinsic and extrinsic motivation levels of the students studying in higher education and their job satisfaction.

İçsel ve Dışsal Motivasyonun İş Tatminine Etkisi: Bir Alan Araştırması

Abstract

Duygusal ve bilişsel yönleri de olan bireyleri öngörülen nitelikte ve nicelikte işlevlerini yerine getirmesi için etkilemek anlamına gelen motivasyon, içsel ve dışsal yönleri olan bir olgudur. Kişilerin işlerinden duydukları memnuniyet olarak tanımlanan iş tatmini ise bireylerin çalışma hayatına karşı duyduğu huzur ve rahatlığı gösteren, genel tutum ve davranışların bütünüdür. Yaptığı işin karşılığını almak ve uyumlu bir ortamda görevlerini yürütmek isteyen çalışanların iş tatmininin, çalışanların iş yapma arzusunu artıran motivasyondan etkilenmesi muhtemeldir. Bu araştırmada, çalışanların motivasyon düzeylerinin onların iş tatminleri üzerinde etkisinin olup olmadığını incelemek amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla Doğu Akdeniz Bölgesi’ndeki bir devlet üniversitesinde öğrenim gören üniversite öğrencileri ile anket yapılmış, ankete katılan 410 katılımcıdan araştırma verileri elde edilmiştir. Anket sonucu elde edilen verilerle SPSS programı ile frekans, korelasyon ve regresyon analizleri yapılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda yüksek öğretimde öğrenim gören öğrencilerin içsel ve dışsal motivasyon düzeyleri ile iş tatminleri arasında pozitif yönde önemli ilişkilerin olduğu bulgusuna ulaşılmıştır.
