Abstract

In Japan, several study have shown that satisfaction with extracurricular activities for junior and high school students influences satisfaction with their school life. However, there are some possibilities in satisfaction factors between junior and high school students. We conducted a study to clarity the differences in satisfaction factors (satisfiers) and dissatisfaction factors (dissatisfiers) for the students in extracurricular activities. However, there are little theories about their satisfiers and dissatisfiers. Here, we applied Herzberg’s “Motivation-Hygiene theory” to our specific area of extracurricular activities. It has been shown that bad “supervision-technical” is likely to cause junior high school students’ dissatisfaction, whereas not so for high school students.
