AN ANALYSIS OF THE RELATIONSHIP OF ATHLETIC DIRECTOR JOB SATISFACTION AND LEADERSHIP BEHAVIOR IN THE THREE DIVISIONS OF THE N.C.A.A. AND IN THE N.A.I.A

The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences in job satisfaction and leadership behavior of athletic directors in the NCAA and NAIA athletic organizations. Forty eight percent from the original sample (n = 400) returned usable instruments and participated in the study. Fifty three percent had tenure status and averaged 47 years of age and 22 years of working experience. The data collection was accomplished by the use of a Personal Data Form developed by the author, the Job Description Index and the Leadership Behavior Description Questionnaire Ideal. The job satisfaction scales and the dimensions of leadership behavior were analyzed by ANOVA, Pearson Product-Moment Correlation and the Newman-Keuls Range Test at the Education Computer Center of Florida State University. It was found in the study that athletic directors from the NCAA were more satisfied than dissatisfied with their jobs and that their job attitudes did not influence their leadership behavior. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 43-07, Section: A, page: 2278. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Florida State University, 1982.
