Job Satisfaction Determinants: Differences Between Servicemen and Civilians Journal of Political and Military Sociology 11 (Fall 1983): 265-280 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: unknown Keyword(s): Job Satisfaction; Job Training; Marriage; Military Personnel; Military Service; Racial Equality/Inequality Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. Univariate analysis indicates that job satisfaction in the military is lower than in the civilian sector. Multivariate analysis demonstrates that military service itself or the personal characteristics of servicemen exert little independent influence. Rather, specific elements of satisfaction which have policy implications-- feelings that the experience will be valuable later, for example--account for most of the difference. Racial differences and the likelihood of being married also suggest some policy alternatives. A small segment of each service who report being very satisfied with their military job appear to be influenced by different job satisfaction factors than the majority. |
