Job satisfaction as mediated by the value congruity of supervisors and their subordinates
研究调查了48名主管和337名下属，发现工作满意度高的下属与上级的价值观结构更相似，表明价值观一致性对工作满意度有中介作用。
Abstract This study represents an attempt to individualize values and job satisfaction. Using a specifically designed Value Scale and the J.D.I., a sample of 48 supervisors and 337 subordinates in six production organizations was investigated. It was found that those subordinates who indicate high job satisfaction tend to have value structures more similar to their superiors than do subordinates who evidence lower satisfaction. The implications of this value homogeneity within work groups were advanced and further research suggested.
