Associations between observed patterns of classroom interactions and teacher wellbeing in lower secondary school
2019
Classroom observations and teacher self-reports were used to examine the relationships between patterns of teacherestudent interactions and the wellbeing of Norwegian lower secondary school teachers. Latent profile analysis identified four subgroups. Teacherestudent interactions and the teachers' wellbeing were inter-related in that teachers who were observed to be high in all the interaction domains (Emotional Support, Classroom Organization, and Instructional Support) perceived themselves as having high job satisfaction. The results showed that improving teachers’ wellbeing has the potential to improve teacherestudent interactions and vice versa. The study also discusses the use of classr…
ESCOLARIZACIÓN, TRABAJO INFANTIL Y SATISFACCIÓN LABORAL: EVIDENCIA PARA ETIOPÍA
2012
En ligne sur http://www.staragon.com/revecap/revista/numeros/58/pdf/gamero_lassibille.pdf; International audience; Tomando como referencia Etiopía, este artículo investiga, en el marco de un modelo probit bivariante, cuáles son los factores que influyen en las probabilidades de que un niño trabaje o siga escolarizado. Los resultados muestran que el trabajo infantil desplaza efectivamente a la demanda de educación y sugieren que prohibir el trabajo infantil, para romper la competencia que se ejerce entre la educación y el empleo, podría perpetuar el nivel de pobreza de las generaciones futuras. Por otro lado, se analizan los factores de los que depende su satisfacción laboral, poniendo espec…
Job Satisfaction among Primary School Personnel
2016
International audience; This article analyzes the job satisfaction of primary school teachers inMadagascar. Based on the estimation of multilevel models, low wages and problems getting paid, job insecurity, lack of in-service training, high pupil-teacher ratios, and lack of basic infrastructure and teaching materials are identified as the main reasons for dissatisfaction. Principals' control of teachers' activities also adversely affects satisfaction, suggesting that, in Malagasy schools, neither school directors nor teachers have succeeded in adopting organizational cultures based on cooperation among their members. These results are likely to stimulate debates on educational policy, both …
Geneses of Labour Market Turnover: Job Search and Entrepreneurial Aspirations On-the-job
2005
In this paper we study the labour market behavior of employed individuals that have entrepreneurial aspirations in addition to aspirations to switch job. We analyze empirically these two “search processes” side-by-side and report three main findings: First, neither entrepreneurial aspirations nor aspirations to switch job are uncommon, but only few are engaged in both search processes. Second, the two processes are not alike: It is more difficult to empirically explain entrepreneurial aspirations than aspirations to switch job. Only few observable characteristics of the employed are related to both processes. Varied experience and job dissatisfaction are directly related to the probability …
