Summary: | 博士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 體育學系 === 99 === The purposes of this study were to clarify the reality of job satisfaction, job stress, organizational commitment and job performance for government physical education administrators in Taiwan. It was also to compare the differences those officers’ demographic variables on their job satisfaction, job stress, organizational commitment and job performance. In addition, it tried to probe the relationship among job satisfaction, job stress, organizational commitment and job performance of government physical education administrative organizations. Questionnaire survey was conducted by the researcher to collect data for this study. Out of the 284 questionnaires posted to the P.E. administrators in the physical education administrative organizations in Taiwan, a total of 231 were valid. The quantitative data acquired were analyzed through descriptive statistics, One-way MANOVA and SEM. The results were as follows:
1. Physical education administrators’ job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and job performance were at the middle-to-high level, while their job stress was at the middle level.
2. Physical education administrators with different backgrounds also felt differently in terms of job satisfaction, job stress, organizational commitment, and job performance. Generally speaking, “male” showed better results in terms of job satisfaction and organizational
commitment. Those who were over 51 years old showed better results in terms of job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and job performance. Those who had worked for
more than 21 years showed better results in terms of job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and job performance but worse in terms of job stress. Results for administrators with different educational backgrounds were similar in terms of job satisfaction, job stress, and organizational commitment. However, in the “context performance” category of job performance, those with graduate-school degrees demonstrated better results than those with bachelor degrees. Results for those at different job ranks were also different. Those who held recommended and selected ranks demonstrated better results than those held delegated ranks in terms of job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and job performance, but the opposite in terms of job stress. Supervisors demonstrated better results in terms of job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and job performance, but non-supervisors demonstrated stronger feelings in the “role ambiguity” category of job stress.
3. The findings in our study, which are used to establish the cause-and-effect pattern for physical
education administrators’ job satisfaction, job stress, organizational commitment, and job
performance, were as follows: job stress indicated negative influence on job satisfaction,
through which the performance of organizational commitment was lowered indirectly. Job
satisfaction indicated strong positive influence on organizational commitment. Among the
factors that affected physical education administrators’ job performance, job satisfaction and
organizational commitment indicated stronger positive influence, while job stress indicated
mid-level influence.
