Purpose-Based on Job Characteristics Theory (JCT), the study examined direct and indirect precursors of task significance and psychological experiences to explain teacher work motivation. Methodology-This study employed a survey design. A sample of 497 teachers out of a 12005-strong population was selected from National Secondary Schools in the state of Kedah. Cluster random sampling was used to select the samples. Data were obtained through a survey questionnaire that comprised 22 items and these were analysed using structural equation modelling and regression analysis with PROCESS MACRO. Findings-Results indicated that task significance and psychological experiences (experienced meaningfulness of the work, experienced responsibility for outcomes of the work and knowledge of actual results of the work) significantly influenced teacher work motivation.
Tujuan – Kajian ini bertujuan meneliti hubungan langsung faktor pelbagai kemahiran dengan motivasi kerja guru. Selain itu, kajian ini juga meneliti kesan pengantaraan pengalaman-pengalaman psikologi sebagai pemboleh ubah pengantara. Metodologi – Kajian ini menggunakan reka bentuk korelasi yang melibatkan pengujian permodelan persamaan berstruktur dengan pendekatan kuantitatif, manakala kaedah tinjauan keratan rentas digunakan untuk pungutan data kajian. Responden kajian ini berjumlah 458 orang terdiri daripada kalangan guru sekolah menengah kebangsaan harian biasa di negeri Kedah. Teknik pensampelan rawak berkelompok telah digunakan untuk memilih responden kajian. Data kajian telah dianalisis dengan menggunakan Pemodelan Persamaan Berstruktur dan analisis lanjutan IBM SPSS melibatkan kaedah bootstrapping bagi kesan pengantaraan. Dapatan – Hasil kajian menunjukkan pelbagai kemahiran tidak mempunyai hubungan langsung yang signifi kan dengan motivasi kerja guru. Namun begitu, faktor pelbagai kemahiran didapati mempunyai hubungan langsung yang signifi kan dengan pengalaman kerja yang bermakna, pengalaman bertanggungjawab terhadap hasil kerja dan pengetahuan sebenar hasil kerja. Analisis selang keyakinan 95% bias diperbetulkan bagi pengalaman kerja yang bermakna, pengalaman bertanggungjawab terhadap hasil kerja dan pengetahuan sebenar hasil kerja tidak mengandungi nilai sifar menunjukkan ketiga-tiga pengalaman psikologi memberi kesan pengantaraan yang signifikan.
