Abstract
Study aims to examine the relationship between perceived job satisfaction levels and work-family conflicts of the physical education teachers. Research group consists of 154 volunteer physical education teachers that work full time in governmental institutions in Kirşehir city and its counties. To acquire the job satisfaction datum; the Minnesota job satisfaction Scale, developed by Weiss, Dawis, England and Lofquist (1967) and adapted to Turkish version by Baycan (1985), was used. For acquiring the work-family conflict datum the Work-Family Conflict Scale, developed by Netemeyer et al. (1996) and adapted to Turkish by Efeoglu (2006), was used. While there was no meaningful difference determined between groups in the job satisfaction levels of physical education teachers according to gender and working year in the institution variance there was a meaningful difference determined between groups according to age and working year variance. When work-family conflict levels of teachers are considered while there was no meaningful difference found between groups according to gender variance there was a meaningful difference determined between groups according to age and working year in that institution variances. As a result, there was no meaningful relationship found between job satisfaction levels and work-family conflict levels of physical education teachers.

The changing roles of teachers with the new program have played an important role in the process of change in demand and expectation of the parents. All these changes and anticipations have considerably influenced teachers’ daily activities These changes and adaptation process increase the diversity of the roles currently available and limit teachers in terms of time and energy. These changes and adaptation process increase the diversity of the roles currently available and limit teachers in terms of time and energy. Greenhaus and Beutell (1985) suggested that the lack of time and energy, which is required to be given for one role and given to other role, lead to a work-family conflict
