Sumario:The research work has been done in the field of social and organizational psychology. It is aim to analyze the factors which influence the levels of satisfaction and achievement reached by those working for scientific organizations and their relationship with professional mobility (Andrews, Aichholzer, Cole, Mittermeir, Stole-Heiskanen, UNESCO—United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, 1971) [1]. A stratified sample was taken from universities and different disciplines, based on a population of teachers from the Cuyo region (N = 355 R + D—Research & Development Units) (5% error margin). At this first stage, the research teachers were from Universidad Nacional de Cuyo (N = 53 Research Units): one chief or director and members. Quantitative techniques were used (two questionnaires). The results show that researchers’ satisfaction at different levels is connected with professional mobility and disciplinary fields. Regarding leadership, and considering professional mobility, a general feeling of satisfaction emerges among researchers, regardless of their disciplinary field.
