Validating Measures of Hertzberg-Two-Factor Theory in the Context of Academic staff at Kyambogo University. African Journal of Education, Science and Technology, 8(1), 301-310.https://ajest.info/index.php/ajest/article/view/1081https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12504/2128The study validated the measures of Hertzberg two-factor theory in the context of full-time academic staff at Kyambogo University. Basing on the conceptualization by Hertzberg (1951), the theory was studied in terms of intrinsic and extrinsic job satisfaction. This cross-sectional study involved a sample of 201 from full-time academic staff at Kyambogo University, data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire. Descriptive statistics and structural equation modelling (SEM) using Smart PLS for partial least square structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) was used to determine the measures of two-factor theory. Descriptive results indicated that two constructs of intrinsic and extrinsic job satisfaction were high. PLSSEM indicated that the two constructs of intrinsic and extrinsic job satisfaction were appropriate measures of the Hertzberg two-factor theory. It was concluded that Kyambogo University managers promoted high level of intrinsic and extrinsic job satisfaction towards academic staff. Therefore, the study recommended that Kyambogo University managers need to ensure both intrinsic and extrinsic job satisfaction is enhanced among full-time academic staffenJob satisfactionIntrinsic and ExtrinsicHertzberg two-factor theoryAcademic staffKyambogo UniversityUgandaArticle
