Developing A Measure Of Students’ Satisfaction With A Supervisor

Description:

Researchers and public institutions alike have demonstrated an increased interest in assessing the quality of students’ supervision and their satisfaction with itμ Researchers have attempted to investigate the possible predicting variables of students’ satisfaction with their supervision and its outcomes for students’ accomplishments and overall life satisfaction. Measurement used for the satisfaction of the academic supervisor using the construct of interdependence theory which is part of social exchange theory that discussed the cost and reward in such a relationship. In this measure we took three dimensions of this interdependence theory, namely costs, rewards, and the comparison level. Thirty two participants participated in this study, convenience methods used for sample selection. The findings of the present study support the hypothesis based of Interdependence Theory. Validity and reliability of the scale were successfully tested as well. Thus, we may conclude that the new approach to the measurement of satisfaction with relationship with academic advisor may be established. We may assume, that not only the items, which address the state of satisfaction directly, may assess satisfaction. The present study proves that items, which are designed to measure different components of relationship, may assess satisfaction.
