    (AAU, 2020) Aklilu, Amanuel Dana; Zewedie, Teka (PhD)
    This study was focused on examining the relationship between self-esteem, job satisfaction, and job performance of police officers. 303 samples were randomly selected and questionnaires were administrated to police officers. Of which 293 returned back the questionnaires. Quantitative research design was employed as a research design and data collected through standardized and adapted instruments like Rosenberg Self-esteem scale, job satisfaction survey, and job performance instrument. The data were analyzed based on descriptive and inferential statistics. Independent sample t-test was employed to check whether there is a gender difference on the study variables. The result showed that there was no significant difference between gender and self-esteem, job satisfaction, and job performance score levels. The bivariate correlation result indicates that self-esteem of police officers have very weak, inverse and statistically not significant relationship with job satisfaction. And also, job satisfaction has a very weak, inverse, and statistically not significant relationship with job performance. But, self-esteem has weak, positive, and statistically not significant relationship with job performance of police officers. Furthermore, the result of multiple regression analysis showed that the variable of self-esteem and job satisfaction explained 0.3 % of the variance in the level of job performance, and it has no statistically significant power to predict predictor variables over criterion variable. The 99.7% of the variation in the level of job performance of police officers was not explained by other variables in the model. And also, the Standardized Beta Coefficients give a measure of the contribution of each variable in the model. Therefore, the self-esteem of police officers have 9.7 % positive contribution on job performance and job satisfaction of police officers have a negative effect (-0.3 %) on job performances. Based on the finding, the study concludes with some recommendations, and conclusions on how to maintain and improve the level of self-esteem, job satisfaction and job performance of police officers
