Abstract
A factor analysis of responses from 293 Georgia high school business education teachers to the 100-item long-form Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire yielded two factors, Intrinsic Satisfaction and Extrinsic Satisfaction, accounting for 51.4 and 11.1%, respectively, of the common variance. Four items (3 previously identified as Intrinsic and 1 as Extrinsic) loaded .37 or higher on both factors, suggesting that satisfaction may be a function of interaction of personal and context variables, consistent with the concept of social compensation.
