Relationship between Positive Attitude and Job Satisfaction: Evidence from the US Data Eastern Economic Journal 42,3 (June 2016): 349-372. Also: http://link.springer.com/article/10.1057/eej.2014.76 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan Journals Keyword(s): Attitudes; Job Satisfaction; Positive Affect (see Happiness/Optimism) Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. Using data from the 1979 National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY79), a longitudinal data set from the United States, and following different cross-sectional and panel data estimation procedures, the study demonstrates that the worker's job satisfaction is related positively to his/her positive attitude. This conclusion remains valid regardless of whether the worker's wage income is treated as an exogenous variable or as an endogenous variable. The study thus claims that the worker’s satisfaction at workplace is related to not only the external job-related factors, but also his/her inner psychological attitude. |
