Tipología de docentes universitarios de acuerdo con su desempeño docente: motivados y no motivados

The teaching job includes multiple tasks and implies different targets of this work, such as teachers, universities, students and colleagues. The purpose of this research is to obtain a typology of university professors according to several aspects of their job performance: professors’ perception of working conditions, evaluation of job performance and their communication about the contribution and significance of their job. With this objective in mind, data were collected from 137 Spanish university professors participating in this study. A non-hierarchical cluster analysis (k-means) was carried out and the results offer a professors’ typology of motivated and demotivated professors.
