| dc.description.abstract | The academic staff is a key resource within higher education institutions, having a major role in achieving its objectives. Moreover, the performance of the academic staff determines much of student learning and success. Therefore, motivation and satisfaction of the academic staff is crucial for the quality of higher education institutions. This paper discusses a study on academic satisfaction and motivation, whose main objective is to identify factors and their interactions affecting the dimensions associated with job satisfaction and motivation of the academic staff within Portuguese higher education institutions. | eng |
