Self-management and its relationship to job performance efficiency among physical education teachers in the center of Maysan Governorate

Abstract

This research aims to determine the level of self-management and job performance efficiency among physical education teachers in the center of Maysan Governorate, as well as to reveal the nature of the correlation between the two variables. To achieve the study's objectives, the researcher adopted a descriptive approach using correlational methods, as it is suitable for the nature of the problem and its goals. The research population consisted of physical education teachers working in schools in the center of Maysan Governorate, while the study sample comprised (90) teachers selected using appropriate methods. The research instruments consisted of a self-management scale and a job performance efficiency scale, each consisting of (30) items according to a five-point Likert scale. Both scales underwent validation and reliability testing to ensure their scientific soundness before being administered to the sample. The results indicated that physical education teachers possessed a high level of self-management and a high level of job performance efficiency, with the mean scores significantly exceeding the hypothetical mean scores. The arithmetic means were significantly higher than the hypothetical means. The results also showed a statistically significant positive correlation between the two variables, indicating that developing self-management contributes to enhancing the job performance of physical education teachers.
