Abstract

This comprehensive exploration delves into the phenomenon of job involvement among high school teachers. Through a mixed-methods approach, incorporating surveys, interviews, and observations, the study investigates the factors influencing teachers' levels of job involvement, as well as its impact on job satisfaction and performance. Findings reveal a complex interplay of individual, organizational, and contextual factors shaping teachers' engagement with their work. Factors such as intrinsic motivation, professional development opportunities, administrative support, and school culture emerge as significant determinants of job involvement. The study underscores the importance of understanding and promoting job involvement among high school teachers to enhance overall job satisfaction, performance, and the quality of education.
