It is aim to analyze the factors which influence the levels of satisfaction and achievement reached by those working for scientific organizations and their relationship with professional mobility （Andrews, Aichholzer, Cole, Mittermeir, Stole-Heiskanen, UNESCO--United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, 1971） [1]. A stratified sample was taken from universities and different disciplines, based on a population of teachers from the Cuyo region （N = 355 R ＋ D-Research ＆ Development Units） （5% error margin）. At this first stage, the research teachers were from Universidad Nacional de Cuyo （N = 53 Research Units）： one chief or director and members. Quantitative techniques were used （two questionnaires）. The results show that researchers＇ satisfaction at different levels is connected with professional mobility and disciplinary fields. Regarding leadership, and considering professional mobility, a general feeling of satisfaction emerges among researchers, regardless of their disciplinary field.展开更多

The purpose was to analyze the relation between professional mobility and professional satisfaction, variables hard to reach a competitive and uncertain work world and within education institutions which do not always train adequately in the competences required by the market. Associated to them, we analyzed the professionalization factor and the identity strategies involved in confronting the problems at work. The methodology used was quantitative （statistical analysis） but mainly qualitative （interviews and hierarchical evocations）. This technique shows which aspects enter into the focus of the representations of the doctors regarding the relation of education/work and of the conditioning factors of achievement, and which aspects are ＂peripheral＂. The analysis was carried out from Dr. Aparicio＇s approach--The Theory of Three Dimensional Spiral of Sense--i.e., in the light of three-level interplay： micro, meso, and macro levels. Also, we took as reference the ＂Expectancy-Valence Theory＂ and the Theory of Education as ＂Consumption or Investment＂. The results show non-linear but spiral （in feedback） relations between the variables of the model （psycho-social, organizational, and structural factors） according to disciplinary fields and national contexts.展开更多
