Background and Objective: Understanding the factors that create job satisfaction can increase it and motivate faculty to engage in research. This study aims to research into these factors.

Materials and Methods:214 faculty members working at SUMS were selected randomly. Data was collected and analyzed.

The mediator (self efficacy) also showed a significant correlation with the criterion variable (job satisfaction). The results showed that the predictive path analysis (management support, subjective norm and job security) and significant indirect effect through the mediator (self efficacy) with job satisfaction.
