Abstract
This study investigated the relationships between the motivations of master’s students and satisfaction with the programme. Participants included 978 students from two Spanish universities. The results showed that the characteristics of the master’s programme explained the differences in the reasons for choice and student satisfaction. We found a positive relationship between academic satisfaction and the reasons for self-realization and personal growth. The results allow us to reconsider the process of student guidance and counselling.
