- Abstract:
- The purpose of this study was to explore the level of job satisfaction, perceptions of workload, and prior expectations of Special and General Education Administrators in Miami-Dade County. One thousand questionnaires were distributed at the Regional Center meetings for principals and assistant principals. From this, 489 questionnaires were returned, representing a 48.9% return rate. Results indicated that males and females did not differ in their level of satisfaction with their job; there was a very low, negative correlation between level of education and job satisfaction; there was a positive low, although significant, relationship between salary and job satisfaction; and there was a low, negative correlation between the proportion of students receiving special education services and job satisfaction. Results also showed that Special Education Administrators were significantly less satisfied with their jobs than General Education Administrators. In addition, Special Education Administrators showed that their workload or perceived difficulty was significantly higher than that of General Education Administrators, and they have slightly more prior expectations about their jobs than the General Education Administrators.
