Results of the Data Analysis
Chi square analysis is used in the analysis of categorical variables. It actually tests the
independence between the variables. The null hypothesis is rejected when the p value is less than
or equal to the level of significance. Therefore on the basis of the study, the following is an SPSS
output of the chi square analysis between the job satisfaction and the gender.

and job satisfaction is 0.237.This value is greater than 0.05 and therefore the two variables are
dependent of each other.

Testing of hypothesis
We wish to test hypothesis that the pay trajectory do not satisfy of the teachers. Since these are
two categorical variables, Chisquare analysis will be the most appropriate.
Therefore, the following is the SPSS output of the hypothesis.

The p value generated is 0.228 and therefore the hypothesis is rejected. Therefore, the pay
trajectory affects the satisfaction of the English teacher.
Summary of the findings
The analysis of the data indicates that the pay trajectory affects the job satisfaction of the teacher.
Obviously the pay of any worker needs to be reviewed as years go by so that their morale can be
boosted. The increase in the pay also indicate that the teachers have good experience from year
to year. Majority of the variables also indicate that they are dependent of the job satisfaction. The
analysis also indicate that the more the respondents age, the more the salary that the individual
receives. Consequently this means that such a respondent is satisfied with the job. The results
also indicate that the respondents who teach higher level of classes receive more than 3000 yen
DATA ANALYSIS 18
in the salary and this consequently mean that they are satisfied with the job. This study can be
extended to a larger sample so that the results can be confirmed. Since the study is concerned
with the pay and job satisfaction of the teachers in Japan, a large sample would give good results.
Probably a sample of 500 respondents could be considered for some confirmatory
analysis.However, the sample to be considered needs to be collected in a random manner. In a
random sample, all the respondents would have the same chances of being selected and therefore
bias will be avoided. Therefore, majority of the respondents indicated that there pay increased as
the time in the service increased. Some of them indicated that the pay was somehow reducing
given the workload. They felt that the workload was too much. Since the pay increased as
depending on the period of service and hence the pay trajectory, majority of the respondents
were satisfied with the job.
