The job satisfaction of 110 teachers of the educable mentally retarded was significantly and usually substantially correlated with the Social, Artistic, and Realistic scales of the Vocational Preference Inventory (VPI). The direction of these correlations was consistent with theoretical and commonsense expectations. Job satisfaction was not significantly related to certification, degree, or teaching level. The implications of the results for the selection and placement of teachers and for Holland's theory are discussed. |
