Abstract

A number of psychosocial determinants have been associated with a significant proportion of teachers with adjustment problems and low levels of motivation. The motivation of physical education teachers is a critical factor in their approach to students and in achieving lesson outcomes. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the motivation levels of physical education teachers in terms of some variables. In the study, based on the descriptive survey model, physical education teachers were compared according to the variables of gender, age, marital status and type of school. The sample of the study consists of 206 physical education teachers working in secondary schools and high schools in Aksaray, Karaman and Konya provinces of our country. Intrinsic and extrinsic motivation scales were used to collect research data. According to the results of the study, the extrinsic motivation levels of the teachers were found to be partially low. The extrinsic and general motivation of physical education teachers working in private schools is very low. According to the findings of the study, the motivation levels of physical education teachers differ according to the variables of gender, age, marital status and type of school.
