A Study on the Impact of Life Happiness on Job Performance
Abstract
This study investigates whether the life happiness of school administrators has an impact on job performance and whether life happiness shows a significant difference according to demographic factors. In this direction, an application has been carried out for school administrators working in official institutions. The data sets obtained from the research where the survey technique has been used have been evaluated with SPSS package program. As a result of the analyses carried out within the scope of this program; a positive relationship has been found between life happiness and job performance, and it has been determined that a 1-unit increase in life happiness caused a 1,237-unit increase in managers' job performance. However, it has been determined that life happiness showed a significant difference according to education level, age, marital status, income, school type, and tenure.
