Can Faculty Members Follow Their Own Criteria? A Multinational Study

Abstract

This study aimed to observe the ability to reach the success of professors in reaching their long-term goals in Turkey and in Texas. 23 faculty members from Turkish universities and 16 faculty members from Texas universities are interviewed. The teaching purpose and opinions of the professors are collected. Analytic Hierarchy Process is used to determine the long-term goals of the professors, and to weigh their opinions. These goals became the criteria of Promethee analysis, and these weights are used for this analysis. Promethee is a multi-criteria decision making method, it can be accepted as a quantitative heuristic method. The significant constructs are determined as “service quality, job satisfaction, occupational stress, organizational commitment” by the professors. 106 Certified Public Accountants (CPA) from Texas and 187 CPAs from Turkey who were students of these professors also participated in this study. The ability of reaching the goals was monitored.
