The Relationship between Quality Circles and Teacher Satisfaction.

Sherman, Ross

Educational Research Quarterly, v14 n2 p53-56 1990

The relationship of teacher participation in Quality Circles to teacher satisfaction was examined for 64 elementary school teachers participating in 9 Quality Circle decision-making groups. Participation in the Quality Circles did not meet subjects' needs for achievement, recognition, or growth; and it did not increase job satisfaction. (SLD)
