| Summary: | For many students and teachers achievement motivation has become not just an essential part of vocational life but
also infringing even on the quality of social, family and work life. Achievement motivation has been studied as one
of the most positive aspect of students’ life while, occupational or role stress has been linked with individuals’
social, family and organizational sector. This study examines the impact of social and family stress on the
achievement motivation of school and college teachers in Aligarh, India. Statistical analyses of questionnaire returns
of 200 teachers reveal that the impact of social and family role stress was not significant on the achievement
motivation of the subjects. This insignificant relationship may be attributed to the fact that Indian school as well as
college teachers keep their social and family stress separate from their achievement motivation. This separation was
made possible because the teachers were academically and professionally successful and this enabled them to
distinguish between their personal and professional domains of life and not allowing any undue interference of
outside events or happenings. |
