Hi Cristina,

Try to look on Career Satisfaction (Greenhaus, Parasuraman & Wormley, 1990). The items are as follows:

I am satisfied with the...

1. Success I have achieved in my career

2. Progress I have made toward meeting my overall career goals

3. Progress I have made toward meeting my goals for income

4. Progress I have made toward meeting my goals for advancement

5. Progress I have made toward meeting my goals for the development of new skills

Hope it helps.

Good question, follow it.

Hi Cristina, in my experience i can tell you it's easier to create an own scale using the likert´s additive system, using the methodology of the indicators and index.; if you want to get validation and fiability rates, the spss or stata will help you to do it, working with a pilot group. it depends about the number of students of your population.

Dear Gabriel Abad, thanks for your advice.

I am interested in your experience. I will contact you in a private message.

Thanks again! Cristina

Dear Cristina Jones

Please read this paper.

Academic job satisfaction questionnaire: Construction and validation in Saudi Arabia

The questionnaire The impetus for this present study was a directive from the National Commission for Academic Accreditation and Assessment (NCAAA), prompting the development of academic assessment tools including staff JS rates. This stimulated a process of extensive scanning of the literature, scrutiny of existing JS measures, as well as expert panels and focus group deliberations. The outcome was a fully structured draft questionnaire composed of two parts. The first part contained basic demographic and professional data including sex, age, nationality, academic degrees, college, department and duration of service at the University. The second part contained 46 items, one of which was an overall judgment about one's own JS, and the remaining items subdivided into eleven putative JS domains. Each item required a 5-option Likert-type response coded from 1 to 5 according whether it was “Strongly Disagree”, “Disagree", "Neutral”, “Agree”, or “Strongly Agree” respectively. The questionnaire was dispatched by internal college mail to each faculty member for anonymous selfadministration.
