Abstract
This study aimed to identify the profiles of work motivation among teachers of students with intellectual and developmental disabilities and investigate the associated factors. Through surveying 972 and interviewing 10 teachers from Chinese inclusive primary schools, this mixed-method study identified three work motivation profiles: de-motivated, meaning-seeking, and deep internalization, with the first profile exhibiting the least adaptive value and the third demonstrating the most adaptive value. Length of service and in-service training influenced teachers' profile membership. School policies, principal support, professional support, and collaboration with students’ parents contributed to differentiating the three profiles. Implications and limitations are discussed.
