Abstract

This study investigated the moderating role of self-efficacy in role-based stress (role conflict and role overload) and job satisfaction (extrinsic and intrinsic) relations among academic staff of a University in South-east Nigeria. The objectives of the study were to determine whether self efficacy will positively predict job satisfaction (intrinsic and extrinsic), to determine whether self-efficacy will weaken the negative relationship between role conflict and job satisfaction (intrinsic and extrinsic) and to determine whether self-efficacy will weaken the negative relationship between role overload and job satisfaction (intrinsic and extrinsic).Two hundred and fifty-six academic staff of Enugu State University of Science and Technology participated in the study. The ages of the participants ranged from 28–69 years (M=45.29, SD=8.98). The participants were drawn using multi stage (cluster and purposive) sampling technique from Enugu state University of Science and Technology. The study was a cross-sectional survey study and self-rated measures were used to collect data from participants. These measures include Role Overload Index, Role Conflict Scale, Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire and General Self-Efficacy Scale. Moderated hierarchal regression was used for data analysis. The results indicated thatSelf-efficacy significantly moderated the relationship between role conflict and extrinsic job satisfaction (β = -.19, t = -3.37, p< .001) but, did not moderate the relationship between role overload and extrinsic job satisfaction. Also, self-efficacy did not moderate the relationship between role-based stress (role conflict and role overload) and intrinsic job satisfaction. These findings were discussed in the light of existing theories and empirical studies.
