REYES SANTANA, Manuel. From malaise to commitment: individual factors which affect the job satisfaction of teachers. Rev. Inter Ação [online]. 2013, vol.38, n.1, pp.37-50. ISSN 0101-7136.  https://doi.org/10.5216/ia.v38i1.18736.

Concern about the job satisfaction of teachers has shifted from a focus on malaise to a more positive trend that focuses on wellness as a core interest. Various factors, both personal and environmental, are considered from both perspectives. This paper presents a reflection on some of the individual factors which affect the job satisfaction of teachers and proposes some suggestions for analysis. Some of the possible features required by the theoretical models aimed at explaining the job satisfaction of teachers are analyzed. Finally, some guidelines are offered for a formative intervention to promote teachers' welfare.

Keywords : Teachers' Malaise; Teachers' Efforts; Job Satisfaction.
