The four dimensions of Teacher Quality Work Life (TQWL) shared different features. For psychology-need, the Malaysian teacher (M = 0.50 logits, SP = 0.25) was lower than the Indonesian teacher (M = 1.14 logits, SP = 0.50). For social-need, the Malaysian teacher (M = 0.61 logits, SP = 0.30) was also lower than the Indonesian teacher (M = 0.75 logits, SP = 0.48). For political-need, the Malaysian teacher (M = 0.82 logits, SP = 0.36) was also lower than the Indonesian (M = -0.09 logits, SP = 0.62). For economy-need, the Malaysian teacher (M = -0.71 logits, SP = 0.63) was also lower than the Indonesian teacher (M = -0.09 logits, SP = 0.62). The result of ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) analysis indicated that the orientation of culture influences samples response for these two countries-states, Malaysia and Indonesia.
