Abstract

Araştırmanın amacı: öğretmenlerin proaktivite, psikolojik iyi oluş ve mesleki doyum düzeylerinin incelenmesi olarak belirlenmiştir. Belirlenen amaca ulaşabilmek için nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden ilişkisel tarama modeli kullanılmıştır. Belirlenen amaç kapsamında ilk olarak kıdem, yakın arkadaş sayısı, memlekette/gurbette çalışma, öğretmen/yönetici olma, medeni durum açısından anlamlı farklılık olup olmadığına bakılmıştır. İkinci olarak proaktivite, psikolojik iyi oluş ve mesleki doyum arasında anlamlı ilişki olup olmadığı araştırılmıştır. Araştırmanın çalışma grubu Kilis’te görev yapan 162 öğretmenden oluşmaktadır. Veri toplarken “Kısaltılmış Proaktivite Ölçeği”, “Psikolojik İyi Oluş ölçeği”, “Mesleki Doyum Ölçeği” ve “Kişisel Bilgi Formu” kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde bağımsız örneklem t-testi, ANOVA, Pearson korelasyon katsayısı ve adımsal regresyon analizi kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda proaktivite, psikolojik iyi oluş ve mesleki doyum değişkenleri arasında pozitif yönlü anlamlı ilişkiler bulunmuştur. Demografik değişkenler açısından bakıldığında proaktivitenin kıdem ve yakın arkadaş sayısına göre farklılaştığı; psikolojik iyi oluşun yakın arkadaş sayısı ve öğretmen/yönetici olma durumuna göre farklılaştığı; mesleki doyum değişkeninin ise kıdem, yakın arkadaş sayısı ve memlekette/gurbette çalışma durumuna göre farklılaştığı belirlenmiştir. Medeni durum değişkenine göre araştırmanın hiçbir değişkeninde farklılık bulunmadığı görülmüştür.
