The problem of this study was to determine what relationships exist between teachers' perceptions of principals' executive professional leadership and teachers' perceptions of principals' behavior in five aspects of administrative behavior.

This study was planned to increase understanding of job satisfaction among faculty in middle size universities. The problem was job satisfaction and its association with selected demographic characteristics of faculty at Kenyatta University, second largest university in Nairobi. There was a response rate of 52.6 percent.

Two instruments were used to collect data from the participating faculty. The first instrument was a demographic data sheet that solicited personal data from faculty.

Analysis of variance demonstrated that the selected demographic variables of age, professional rank, and nationality were associated with job satisfaction.
