Abstract:
The relationship between general job satisfaction and organizational climate variables--control, leadership, motivation, communication, interaction-influence, decision-making, and goal setting--were studied among 207 (mainly part0time) undergraduate and graduate business students from Youngstown State University, who had jobs. The results indicated that organization climate has a positive effect on job satisfaction. But, the study also indicated that Likert's questionnaire measured only one dimension of organizational climate instead of the seven dimensions advocated by Likert.
