HUBUNGAN INTENSI PROSOSIAL DENGAN KEPUASAN KERJA PUSTAKAWAN UNIVERSITAS GADJAH MADA (The Correlation between the Pro-social Intention and the Job Satisfaction of Gadjah Mada University Librarians)

Abstract

The study is aimed at investigating the correlation between the pro-social intention and the job satisfaction of Gadjah Mada University Librarians. The subjects of the study are 70 librarians of Gadjah Mada University. The data is collected using Pro-social Intention Scale, Job Satisfaction Scale and questionnaire. An interview is also conducted with some of the subjects and users to gain a deeper understanding of quantitative analysis results.

The first hypothesis of the study suggests that the pro-social intention is positively correlated to the job satisfaction. The higher is the pro-social intention, the higher the job satisfaction is. The results of Pearson product moment correlation analysis indicate that the correlation coefficient between the pro-social intention and the job satisfaction is r = 0,481, p< 0,01. It means that there is a significant correlation between the pro-social intention and the job satisfaction. The second hypothesis suggests that controlling the factors of age and position, the pro-social intention remains positively correlated to the job satisfaction. It is tested using partial correlation analysis. The results of the analysis is r = 0,437, p<0,01. It means that there remains to be a correlation between the prosocial intention and the job satisfaction by controlling the factors of age and position. However, they are indicative of the decrease in the correlation value. It means that the correlation of the age and position and the pro-social intention is not significantly correlated to thejob satisfaction. It is found out in the study that the magnitude of the contribution of the pro-social intention to the job satisfaction is 23,2%. It means that the pro-social intention variant is able to explain approximately 23,2% of the job satisfaction variant. The coefficient of the pro-social determination and the job satisfaction by controlling the factors of age and position is 19%. It means that controlling the factors of age and position the pro-social intention variant is able to explain approximately 19% of the job satisfaction variant. Thus, it is found that the correlation between the pro-social intention and the job satisfaction decreases 4,2% when
the control factors of age and position are included. Given the contribution of the pro-social intention of 23,2% to the job satisfaction, it means that 76,8% results from other factors that are not included in the study.
