Abstract

The aim of this study was to examine the role of lifestyle in predicting teacher job motivation. The study group consisted of 582 teachers working in different branches of primary, elementary and high schools of the Ministry of National Education in Haliliye, Eyyübiye and Harran districts of Şanlıurfa during the second term of the academic year 2018-2019. Professional Motivation Scale was used to determine the professional motivation of the teachers who participated in the study; Lifestyle Inventory consisting of five sub-dimensions that are control, perfectionism, self-esteem, satisfaction and expectations was used to determine lifestyle. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to determine the role of sub-dimensions of lifestyle; control, perfectionism, self-esteem, satisfaction and expectations, in predicting teacher job motivation. According to the findings, it was concluded that control, perfectionism, and self-esteem significantly predicted teacher job motivation; and these three variables together explained 13% of the variance of teacher job motivation
