ملخص: هدفت الدراسة إلى التحقق من “مستوى الرضا الوظيفي لدى الأكاديميين بالجامعات الفلسطينية في قطاع غزة من خلال دراسة مقارنة بين العاملين في كلية العلوم الإدارية والاقتصادية في جامعة القدس المفتوحة وكلية العلوم الإدارية والمالية -جامعة غزة”، وقد أجريت الدراسة على عينة قوامها (47) على أساس المسح الشامل للعينة من خلال تصميم استبانه خاصة بالدراسة من (18 فقره)، وقد بلغ عدد الأكاديميين المتفرغين وغير المتفرغين في كلية العلوم الإدارية والمالية-جامعة غزة (33)، و(14) أكاديمي متفرغ في كلية العلوم الإدارية والاقتصادية في جامعة القدس المفتوحة، وتم إجراء التحليل الإحصائي على الاستبانات التي تم استرجاعها والصالحة للتحليل (41) استبانه، (12 من القدس المفتوحة بنسبة 29.26% و 29 من جامعة غزة بنسبة 70.74%)، وقد توصلت الدراسة للعديد من النتائج والتوصيات أهمها: – عدم رضا الأكاديميين عن المردود المالي ومناسبته للأعباء الأكاديمية الملقاة على عاتقهم، إلا أن المقارنة بين الجامعتين أظهرت أن الرضا عند الأكاديميين في جامعة القدس المفتوحة أعلى في هذا الجانب نظراً لعمر وعدد الطلاب الملحقين بها، كما أظهرت الدراسة الحالية أن الرضا الوظيفي يتناسب طردياً مع الارتقاء بالرتبة العلمية. – وقد أوصت الدراسة بوجوب تحفيز الأكاديميين في كليات العلوم الإدارية والمالية على البحث العلمي وزيادة الإنتاجية العلمية التي تؤهلهم للترقية، وذلك لارتباطها المباشر بالرضا الوظيفي. Abstract The study aimed at verifying the level of Job Satisfaction Among the Academics in the Palestinian universities in Gaza Strip through conducting a comparative study among the employees in the College of Administrative Sciences and Economics at Al Quds Open University and the Faculty of Administrative and Financial Sciences at University of Gaza. The study was conducted on a sample of (47) on the basis of complete surveying of the sample through designing a special questionnaire for the study which consists of (18 items). The number of the full-time and part-time academics at the Faculty of administrative and financial Sciences of Gaza University was (33), and (14) full-time academics from the College of administrative Sciences and Economics of Al Quds open University. Statistical analysis was conducted on the questionnaires that have been retrieved and were valid for analysis and they were (41) questionnaires (12 questionnaires from Al Quds Open University with percentage of 29.26% and 29 from Gaza University with percentage of 70.74%). The study came up with several conclusions and recommendations, including:Dissatisfaction among the academics on the financial incomes and its relevance of the academic load placed on their shoulders, but the comparison between the two universities showed that the satisfaction among the academics at Al Quds Open University is higher in this aspect due to the age , the size and the number of its students, The current study showed that job satisfaction is directly proportional to the promotion of the academic degree. The study recommended the necessity to stimulate academics in Faculty of Administrative and Financial Sciences on scientific research and increasing the scientific productivity, which enables them to promotion, because of its direct connection with job satisfaction.

The Relationship

Purpose Focusing on the corporations in China and aiming to figure out the significant connection between organizational justice perception and job satisfaction from Chinese setting, this study aimed to examine the effects of organizational justice upon job satisfaction of the full-time and part-time employees in the state owned enterprise (SOEs) and primate Chinese companies. Design/methodology/approach The study adopted the questionnaire to investigate more than 300 employees, and the empirical data of this paper is based on statistical analysis, such as confirmatory factor analysis, correlational and regression analysis. Findings The paper arrives at the conclusion that in SOEs, the employees’ perception about procedural justice was higher than distributive justice. While in private enterprises, the procedural justice and interactive justice were tested to have similar coefficients. The relationship between organizational justice and job satisfaction differed between full-time employees and part-time employees. Practical implications This study opens a new window for understanding how organizational justice influences employees’ job satisfaction in Chinese context, taking a further step to explore the different impacts of organizational justice on job satisfaction among different types of employees. Originality/value This paper collected data from both SOE and private companies in China, increasing the external validity of the findings. Meanwhile, the authors observed consistent findings with the studies in Western Society, which increase the generalization of our findings as well. The findings highlight the value of integrating literatures on organizational justice and job satisfaction.

Based on a survey of 259 full-time employees in the public sector who were also part-time students for the Master of Public Administration program at a prestigious university in eastern China, it was found that person-organization (P-O) fit is a good predictor of job satisfaction and turnover intention in a Chinese context. In contrast to previous findings, the results of competition model analysis indicate that job satisfaction does work as a full mediator between P-O fit and turnover intention. In fact, P-O fit affects turnover intention through job satisfaction as a mediator.

Positive Effect

This study presents findings on the differential effects that leader communicationhas on worker performance and job satisfaction for part-time and full-timeworkers. For both part- and full-time employees, structural equation model resultsindicate that leader communication, as measured through motivating language(ML) use, has the same significant and positive effect on job satisfaction. However,in the case of performance, leader ML use only has a significant relationshipwith the output of full-time workers. These results indicate a boundary conditionto the effectiveness of leader communication, and suggest practical implicationsfor management interventions with today's workforce.

The University

To survey the expansion of British higher education during the last twenty years is to conduct an inquest into an almost unmitigated disaster. The greatly enlarged university system and the new polytechnics have yielded few of the advantages originally claimed by the proponents of rapid growth. The main reason for this failure is that “expansion” has generally been seen as “more of the same.” Since the 1950s, and particularly since the authoritative Robbins Report of 1963, the new universities and polytechnics have too easily become replicas of the old. Higher education has remained geared to the traditional Oxbridge function — the provision of full time, non-vocational, residential, degree courses for 18 – 22 year olds. Significantly, one of the most notable success stories has been the Open University. Unlike conventional institutions, this has introduced a fresh concept of higher education. It offers part time courses catering mainly for adults. The courses are based on correspondence materials and television lectures. The Open University has shown how it is possible to extend the role of the university.

With unfolding human resource challenges in health care, little is known of the impact of changing work patterns and employment relationships on the organization and the nursing profession. Social Exchange Theory (perceived organizational support (POS) and psychological contracts) was used to gain understanding of the influence of nurse's employment patterns on employment relationships and individual, organizational and professional outcomes. The sample consisted of 650 randomly selected nurses employed in full-time, part-time, and casual positions across healthcare settings in Ontario, Canada. A cross-sectional survey design explored demographics, volition, POS, psychological contract, job satisfaction, career commitment, and job and career withdrawal. Work patterns and employment relationships are complex and cannot be examined in isolation of other variables such as volition and work congruence. Full-time nurses were found to have more of a relational psychological contract than part-time or casual nurses. The hypothesis was supported that the psychological contract has a direct effect on nurses’ job satisfaction, job withdrawal, career commitment, and career withdrawal. Nurses want to work different work patterns depending on their age and work-life demands. The importance of fostering strong employment relationships and relational psychological contracts to address such issues as an ageing workforce, nursing shortages, and economic demands is highlighted.

International Politics has been available as part of the Open University's programme of studies for the best part of ten years. During that time several hundred students have experienced this area of study in the unique form of learning and teaching that has come to be the hallmark of Open University courses. It would be interesting to know how the first generation of graduates with an International Politics course behind them respond to that experience, as they have studied a branch of the social sciences that is regarded as especially difficult and demanding in its scope, so much so that an earlier generation of scholars thought the subject to be unsuited to undergraduate study. We have come a long way since then, however, and the typical Open University student is rather different from the conventional undergraduate, bringing to his study more worldliness perhaps—no bad thing in the study of political matters—and a deeper appreciation of the subtleties of human behaviour But this advantage over the student coming straight into higher education from sixth form or college of further education has to be set against the disadvantages of a probable lack of method and discipline in study and of having to receive and assimilate complex ideas at the end of a day of full-time non-academic work, for Open University students are part-time and will do most of their study in the surroundings of their own homes. These circumstances influence the designers of Open University course. In the market place of adult education the consumer is sovereign. Certainly in large urban areas many different educational bodies compete for the adult student and Open University courses have to be designed with this competition in mind. Programmes of study must be carefully structured to provide for set amounts of material to be mastered in a limited period of time. There has also to be clear direction to courses, with signposts in the form of self-assessment exercises and suitable pauses built into course texts to allow for ‘digestion’ and to ensure that the right route is followed. To achieve these ends packages of learning materials are prepared by Open University staff and mailed to students in their own homes, supported usually by a course reader, some set books, and reinforced by the back-up of television and radio. This form of learning parallels conventional methods only in that periodical tutorials with groups of students are conducted by the Open University's part-time tutorial staff.

Part Time Work

The importance of part-time work has been growing in recent years, due to its significant increase in today's societies, and higher education institutions have not been alien to this trend. The present research tries to study the relationship between organizational commitment and job satisfaction with the intention to leave the institution, comparing part-time and full-time faculty. An empirical research, grounded in the model proposed by Currivan (1999), has been undertaken, with a sample of faculty of ETSEIAT, a college of the Technical University of Catalonia. Results show the existence of the relationships with organizational commitment, job satisfaction and intention to leave predicted in the literature, and significant differences in job satisfaction and organizational commitment between part-time and full-time faculty. The paper ends with some proposals of further research.

Negative Religious Coping

This study focused on particular demographic and education-related factors that contribute to the stress levels of public university faculty members in the Philippines. Participants in this study were part-time or full-time faculty members of Philippine public universities and were teaching at least a class during the First Semester of Academic Year 2016-2017. Participants were tasked to answer a survey, online or paper format, consisting of 3 instruments and other questions. Responses from 100 participants were then analyzed with multiple regression as the main statistical analysis. Results showed part-time/full-time status, age, job satisfaction and negative religious coping as significant predictors of faculty stress. Other performed analyses also revealed significant negative correlations between job satisfaction and stressors related to reward and recognition and departmental influence. In addition, though faculty members preferred positive religious coping as a coping strategy over negative religious coping, a significant positive correlation was noted between the 2 types. Recommendations were made for future studies related to stress among public university faculty members in the Philippines.
