Achievement Motivation and Its Relationship with Job Satisfaction – A Field Study of the Employees of the Directorate of State Property in Tamanrasset

Abstract

This study aims to explore the levels of achievement motivation and its relationship with job satisfaction based on the two scales used in the study. It also investigates the potential effects of variables such as gender, educational qualifications, and professional experience on the two main variables of the study: levels of achievement motivation and factors of job satisfaction, which are represented by five core areas among the employees of the Directorate of State Property in Tamanrasset. The researchers adopted a descriptive correlational method between the study variables (achievement motivation and job satisfaction) and used a comparative descriptive method to compare groups based on gender, educational qualifications, and professional experience and their effects on the two main study variables. The researchers selected a sample of 127 employees from an original population of about 140 employees, chosen randomly.
