Demographic Variables in General Job Satisfaction in a Hospital: A Multivariate Study

Abstract

The relationships between demographic variables, such as income, age, education, sex, marital status, job categories (nurses, medical technologists, pharmacists, and administrators) and general job satisfaction were studied in a community general hospital. Analysis showed that females were more satisfied than males when income, age, and education were controlled through covariance. Income and age positively affected job satisfaction when sex, marital status, and job categories were controlled through covariance.
