{"abstract":"The purpose of this study was to investigate the different factors that affect teachers' motivation, with a focus on socio-economic, personal, social, and school environment factors. The study also aimed to ascertain whether the socio-demographic characteristics of teachers and factors affecting their motivation are significantly correlated. Improving educational outcomes, teacher performance, and general job satisfaction in the teaching profession all depend on an understanding of what motivates or discourages teachers. To investigate these objectives, a descriptive-correlational study approach was used. To guarantee representation across various categories, stratified random sampling was used to choose the respondents. Frequency, percentage, and mean were among the descriptive statistical tools used in the study to compile and examine the 102 elementary teachers' socio-demographic profiles and the motivational factors that were found. The Pearson r was used to determine whether there were any significant correlations between the variables. This study provides an understanding of how various extrinsic and intrinsic factors affect teachers' motivation, either fostering or preventing it. By establishing correlations between these motivational factors and demographic characteristics—such as age, gender, years of service, educational attainment, and teaching level—it reveals the complex processes that determine teachers' motivation in a variety of educational settings. The findings provide practical suggestions for stakeholders, legislators, and school administrators in establishing more effective professional development programs, teacher support systems, and work environments that maintain motivation over time. The study actively contributes to the larger discussion on teachers' motivation by emphasizing the interaction of personal qualities and environmental variables. Finally, it seeks to strengthen evidence-based ways for improving teacher effectiveness, retention, and long-term involvement in the educational sector.","abstract_source":"original","authors":["Angelou Sudario"],"date":"2025-08-19","doi":"10.70838/pemj.450410","id":6188,"issue":4,"journal":{"issn":"2822-4353","name":"Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal"},"pdf_sha256":"6806b9ae86c8a4df93fe797d42a4f08b79f3ed94dd92f6230477117a402d43d3","schema":"scimatic-article/1","title":"Investigating Multifaceted Factors Affecting Teachers' Motivation: A Quantitative Analysis of Internal and External Determinants","volume":45}
