Abstract Education in real sense is to humanize humanity and to make life progressive, cultured and civilized. Indian education commission 1966 describes teacher is the pivot around which all the educational programmes rotates. So, the job satisfaction of teachers is much more important. A job refers to task, responsibilities, interactions, incentives and rewards. While satisfaction refers to need or desire. Job is the fulfillment of certain needs that are associated with one’s work.
Keywords Education, Teachers, Job, Satisfaction, Personality, Need.
Introduction
Education always has been considered as a tool for social change. The success of an educational system largely depends upon the quality of teachers. Learners are directly concerned with the teacher and feel the impact of his personality in their daily routine of school work. Qualities of effective teacher get prominence and recognition only when they are in operation in relation to the taught. The teacher is recognized not so much by what he is, as by what he does to his pupils. Teacher’s personality, interests and attitude affect the student’s behaviour patterns and thus ultimately shape their personality (NPE, 1986 and POA 1992). Another human need is the need for understanding or for insight to find answers to questions, to account for the reasons of happenings or events. The little child from the age of four or five begins to question as to why things happen as they do. There is an ever present need to understand the changing experiences and varied relationship among human beings as members of groups. According to Murray (1938), these personality needs are characteristics of personality and control and direct all behoviours. He summarized that these needs are hypothetical entities and prime movers of an individual’s behaviour and his activities. Different needs are explained as follows: 1. Achievement (n ach.) 2. Exhibition (n exh.) 3. Autonomy (n. aut.) 4. Affiliation (n affl.) 5. Succourance (n succ.) 6. Dominance (n dom.) 7. Abasement (n abs.) 8. Nurturance (n nur.) 9. Endurance (n end.) 10.Aggression (n agg.)
Aim of study 1. To find out the level of personality needs of female teachers working in government and private primary level schools. 2. To find out the significance of difference in personality needs of female teachers working in government and private primary level schools.
Review of Literature
Malik, Rishipal (2002) studied relationship of self concept, modernity and personality needs with academic satisfaction of students in context to their locality and socio economic status. It was found that personality need-ach plays an important role for students’ academic satisfaction. Jarrar, A. (2006)studied the teaching aptitude, n-ach and adjustment of prospective teachers in relation to their academic background. It was found that no significant difference between high academic background and low academic background prospective teachers on the measures of n-ach. Khan, Reshma (2008) studied personal correlates of academic achievement i.e. personality n-ach, family climate and school type. It was found that n-ach is similar for under achieving students and over achieving students of private schools. Vimansha and Hemantha (2016) studied there is a strongly positive relationship and strong impact of big five personality traits of male as well as female school teachers on their job satisfaction. No further review has found after 2016.
Hypothesis 1. There is no difference in personality needs of female teachers working in government and private primary level schools.

Tools Used Meenakshi Personality Inventory (MPI)
An Indian Adaptation
Author : Meenakshi Bhatnagar
Publisher: Kanoongoyan Moradabad (U.P.)
Language: Hindi
Description
Prof. Edwards of Washington University of America prepared a questionnaire in 1954, which measures 15 main needs. In 1966 Dr. R.P. Bhatnagar prepared and adapted a Hindi version of this test. Meenakshi personality Inventory (MPI) is a further refinement of that version. This inventory has the same theoretical base and also measures the main psychological personality needs. Although, in this inventory also the psychological needs are defined in the same way, as defined by Murray and subsequently by Edwards and Bhatnagar in the construction of their tests, but no statement is taken in MPI from the latters’ tests.
The Meenakshi Personality Inventory (MPI) tests the following ten psychological needs –
1. Need achievement
2. Need exhibition
3. Need autonomy
4. Need affiliation
5. Need succourance
6. Need dominance
7. Need abasement
8. Need nurturance
9. Need endurance
10. Need aggression
Every need mentioned above is measured with a scale of twenty statements. Every statement attempts to find out “what an individual prefers or what she likes”.
Analysis

Statistical Techinques Used
To analyze the data, different statistics have been applied at two different levels.
 At the first level various descriptive measures (mean, median, standard deviation, mode, skewness, kurtosis) have been calculated . At the second level t-test has been applied to find out significance of difference.
Objective No. 1 To find out the level of personality needs of female teachers working in government and private primary level schools.

Interpretation
Personality Need of Achievement
In the table 3 shows that obtained t- value (C.R.) is .14, which is insignificant at .01 level of significance for df of 298. Minimum required significant C.R. value should be 2.60 for df of 298. Obtained C.R. value is less than minimum required significant C.R. value, therefore, it may be concluded that government teachers and private teachers do not differ significantly on their need of achievement.
  
Figure 2
The difference in personality needs of female teachers working in government and private primary level schools can also be depicted through the figure 2.
Mean need achievement score of female government teachers is less than mean need achievement score of their counterpart female private teachers in primary schools, meaning thereby the need achievement of female government teachers are less than female private teachers in primary schools. This difference in need achievement of two groups, namely, female government teachers and female private teachers is not real and just due to chance factor. Since significant difference does not exist between need achievement scores of government teachers and private teachers, therefore, nothing definite can be said about the causes of insignificant result.

Obtained t- value (C.R.) is 1.38, which is insignificant at .01 level of significance for df of 298. Minimum required significant C.R. value should be 2.60 for df of 298. Obtained C.R. value is less than minimum required significant C.R. value, therefore, it may be concluded that government teachers and private teachers do not differ significantly on their need of aggression.
Mean need aggression of score of female government teachers is greater than mean need aggression score of their counterpart female private teachers in primary schools, meaning thereby the need aggression of female government teachers are greater than female private teachers in primary schools. This difference in need aggression of two groups, namely, female government teachers and female private teachers is not real and just due to chance factor. Since significant difference does not exist between need aggression scores of government teachers and private teachers, therefore, nothing definite can be said about the causes of insignificant result.

Result and Discussion

Out of 10 personality needs, on four needs, namely exhibition, affiliation, dominance and abasement of government female teachers were found significantly related with private female teachers. The need exhibition of female private teachers is more than female government teachers. This may be due to the fact that private teachers are fearful because of the continuous supervision of the management and they have to justify themselves daily, before the authorities. On the other hand, there is no continuous supervision for the female government teachers. The need dominance of female private teachers is more than female government teachers. This may be due to the fact that female private teachers suffer from inferiority complex and to counter this inferiority, they show their dominance. The need affiliation of female government teachers is more than female private teachers. This may be due to the reason that in government sector, the teachers are free from any stress and they work in a normal setting. So, they have an affiliation with the children in particular and with the school in general. The need abasement of female government teachers is more than female private teachers. This may be due to the reason that these teachers feel frustrated and guilty because they are generally over-burdened with the extra work like census, polio programme, mid-day meal, election duties, voter identification etc. Therefore, they don’t show sincerely to their work and when the guardians complain about the poor performance of their wards, and then they insult them to hide their weaknesses. The remaining personality needs, namely, achievement, autonomy, succourance, nurturance, endurance and aggression have no significant relation with private female teachers.

Therefore, it may be concluded that this hypothesis is rejected with regard to 4 personality needs namely exhibition, affiliation, dominance and abasement and is accepted with regard to 6 personality needs namely achievement, autonomy, succourance, nurturance, endurance and aggression.

Conclusion 1. Average personality needs found in female teachers working in primary level is 71.5% for need achievement, 28.5% for need exhibition, 50.72% for need autonomy, 53.83% for need affiliation, 36.5% for need succourance, 39.05% for need dominance, 52.61% for need abasement, 78.05% for need nurturance, 74.27% for need endurance and 14.94% for need aggression. 2. As far as personality needs are concerned female teachers working in government and private primary level schools differ significantly on some of the personality needs i.e. need exhibition, need affiliation, need dominance and need abasement.
