“…The average level of job and life satisfaction of teachers was found good and moderate respectively. Life and job satisfaction increase concomitantly as they are directly proportional to each other, although teachers suffer more from work‐family conflict than from family‐work conflict, which correlate negatively and significantly with job satisfaction (Erdamar & Demirel, ).…”

“…The study suggests the importance of the role of emotional intelligence in order to select the best teachers for the collective benefits of the generation and organisation (Singh & Kumar, ), as well as improvement of the teachers’ spiritual intelligence, as they are the trainers of the next generation (Taziki et al , ). Another suggestion is for the conduction of further studies in order to explore the causes of the conflicts that teachers experience in their family and workplace environment (Erdamar & Demirel, ).…”

This study explored the factors of job satisfaction and dissatisfaction with the recommendations given by the researchers in seventy recruited research studies, which have been conducted for literature review of teachers' job satisfaction in developing countries. The recruited studies were conducted across 21 countries in Asia and Africa, but the majority of them were in Iran, India, Turkey, Pakistan, China and Malaysia. The main purpose of the study was to explore the various relevant factors and, based on them, give recommendations and solutions for the enhancement of the jobs of teachers who work in educational institutions in developing countries. Included in this study were 61 quantitative, two qualitative, and seven mixed research papers. Conducive working conditions, promotional opportunities, fair remuneration, support from headteachers, colleagues and the community, teacher empowerment, and friendships were found to be the major factors affecting the job satisfaction of teachers. An autocratic management style, mistrust, a non-transparent system, a work-life imbalance, an ineffective teaching/learning environment, and unavailability of resources were found to be the main factors affecting job dissatisfaction.

“…Studies conducted showed ties between an individual's satisfaction with life and personality traits [48]; academic performance [49]; emotional intelligence [50] and intrinsic motivation [51]. Furthermore, a number of studies found connections between a teachers' satisfaction with life and job satisfaction [52]; organizational isolation level [53]; burnout Level [54], creativity, profundity, willingness for teamwork, level of forethought and appreciation [55]; and social support [56]. In light of these studies it can be assumed that a teachers' satisfaction with life is interlinked with a number of variables related to their professional life.…”

The purpose of this study is to determine the predictive role of happiness and a teachers' level of satisfaction with life, on their classroom management profiles. The Oxford Happiness Questionnaire Short Form, the Satisfaction with Life Scale, and the Classroom Management Profile Inventory have been administered to 384 teachers employed in state-run secondary education institutes in the districts of Ankara city. According to t-test results, there was a significant difference between the satisfaction with life and authoritarian classroom management profile, with respect to gender. One-way variance analysis (ANOVA) results exhibited that with respect to seniority no difference was detectable between happiness and a teachers' level of satisfaction with life and their classroom management profiles. Findings from a correlation analysis put forth a positive relationship between happiness and a satisfaction with life, and an appreciative classroom management profile, whereas a negative relationship was detected in relation to an indifferent classroom management profile. Findings from multiple regression analysis indicated that happiness and satisfaction with life are significant predictors of appreciative and indifferent classroom management profiles. At the end of this research some suggestions have been offered to elevate the happiness and satisfaction of teachers in general.

“…Job satisfaction is affected by various factors: some of these factors are individual factors such as age, gender, work experience, occupation, level of education, and personality and some are environmental factors such as pay, promotion, opportunities, working conditions, the nature of the work, and the employing institution. Moreover, job satisfaction is critical in a person's life; when a person gets enough job satisfaction, he/she will enjoy life, in general, will be psychologically healthy and will have a great potential to increase his/her success both in professional and personal life (Erdamar & Demirel, 2016). In other words, if one is satisfied with the job, he/she also satisfied with life.…”
