Data were collected by personal interviews using a questionnaire from a random sample amounted to 194 employees represented about 29% of the total number of the extensionsists in four. Governorates, i.e. EL·8ehiera • Kafr EL·Shiekh • Dakahlia and Damietta . Weighted means and factor analysis (by using Varimax Wilk Kaiser . nonnalization rotation method) were used to analyze data statistically, in addition to means, frequencies and percentages. The main results of this research were: The relatively importance of the causes behind leaving out the extension wor1< can be rotated under six factors (components) . The six factors can be ranked depending on the general weighted means for the causes which included it in rotated components as follows: First factor: It called after • job facilities • with general mean amounted to 1.544. " degree. Data cleared that no existence fuel for motorcydes and no money for the main! enance as a first reason from the list of the causes of this factor. Second factor: It called after'' inner burnout· which raises from the inner job stress, with general weighted mean amounted to 1.350 degree. Data cleared that duplicity and contrasting the extension orders is the first reason from the list of the total causes of this factor. Third factor. It called after ''moral job intensive'' or social motivation, with general weighted mean amounted to 1.349 degree. Data showed that stopping and ending extension pogroms and projects, which give more values and importance to the extension occupation, was the first reason of this factor. . Fourth factor: It called after ''economical job intensive'' with general weighted means 1.296 degree. Data referred to restricted rewards and incentives compared with the other agricultural departments were the first reason of this factor. Fifth factor: It called after'' outer bumout '' which raises from the outer job stress, with. weighted mean amounted to 1.138 degree. Data appeared that many problems and barriers reduce the appearance of extensionists efficiency was the first reason on this factor. Sixth factor: It called after'' work climate'' or job environment, with general Weighted mean amounted to 0.993 degree. Data proved that extensionists neglecting and their problems careless by the managers through all managerial levels were the first reason in the list of causes on this factor. Depending on the above six factors, it is very important for the extension work: to prevent the Extensionists leaving out the extension organization, by giving them intensive and reducing the wor1< stress. | ||
