SATISFACTION WITH THE REMUNERATION DISBURSEMENT FOR THESIS/INDEPENDENT STUDY ADVISORY COMMITTEES AND THESIS PROPOSAL/DEFENSE EXAMINATION COMMITTEES IN THE DEVELOPMENT ADMINISTRATION PROGRAM, GRADUATE SCHOOL, SUAN SUNANDHA RAJABHAT UNIVERSITY

Abstract

This study, titled “Satisfaction with the Remuneration Disbursement for Thesis/Independent Study Advisory Committees and Thesis Proposal/Defense Examination Committees in the Development Administration Program, Graduate School, Suan Sunandha Rajabhat University,” examined satisfaction levels among committee members during the 2025 academic year. The objectives were to assess satisfaction with the current remuneration disbursement system and analyze influencing factors such as remuneration appropriateness, transparency, and workload consistency. Quantitative methods including percentage, mean, and standard deviation were used for analysis. Part 1: Basic Information revealed that most respondents were aged 31–40 years (51.4%), followed by those under 30 years (25.7%) and over 50 years (22.9%). In terms of experience, 42.9% had 3–5 years, while 28.6% had less than 3 years and another 28.6% had more than 5 years of experience as committee members. Part 2: Satisfaction Analysis indicated overall high satisfaction with remuneration disbursement. The “procedures and processes for disbursement” scored a mean of 4.12 (SD = 0.64), and “accuracy and transparency” received a mean of 4.28 (SD = 0.59)—both rated at a high level. “Communication and services” also showed strong satisfaction (M = 4.16, SD = 0.61). The findings suggest that committee members were generally satisfied with the remuneration process, particularly regarding fairness and efficiency. However, improvements in procedural clarity and system management could further enhance satisfaction and strengthen financial and administrative operations. (Siriporn, M., & Somchai, S. (2023).)
