Book Description
Job satisfaction is one of the most researched topics in the field of industrial psychology. This dissertation is an examination of job satisfaction of international educators in the post-September 11th era. International educators have experienced immense change since September 11, including implementation of the Student Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) and the threat of global terrorism. As a result many international educators are contemplating early retirement or are leaving the field for different vocations. This study focuses on four different international educator groups: English as a second language administrators/ teachers, international student advisors, study abroad/ international program advisors, and international admissions advisors. The study is the first comprehensive look at job satisfaction of international educators in the research literature. The researcher utilizes a well-established instrument from the field of industrial psychology, the Job Diagnostic Index (JDI). The JDI has been tested extensively for validity and reliability through public and private sector studies. The questionnaire is one that is used to evaluate job satisfaction of individuals who are in positions that have undergone change, thus a perfect fit for international educators. The sampling technique utilized was stratified random sample of all NAFSA regions. The instrument was altered slightly to include international educators and institutional descriptive statistics. These figures were cross-validated with NAFSA (where available) demographic statistics to make sure the sample is an accurate representation of NAFSA members. The study was also piloted in the state of Kentucky and retested for additional validity and reliability. The researcher employed a hierarchical multiple regression statistical procedure to examine the various independent variables and their effect on overall job satisfaction. Variable entrance into the regression analysis was based on the Hulin et al. (1985) Job Satisfaction Model. The results are examined and explained in way to help practitioners understand the areas that are most satisfying and most dissatisfying to international educators.

Book Description
The broad objective of this study was to examine the nature and causes of job satisfaction. This was pursued through a literature review of the more popular theories and models pertaining to job satisfaction. Included in the review are summaries of Maslow's and Alderfer's need hierarchy theories, achievement motivation theory, Herzberg's motivation-hygiene theory, expectancy theory, job characteristics theories, discrepancy theory, equity theory, and studies relating to the clustering of facet satisfactions. The specific objective of this research was to test the efficacy of a three cluster model of facet satisfactions. This was accomplished through a survey which was completed by 267 Air Force officers attending Squadron Officer School and Air Command and Staff College. Conclusions reached by the study were that for Air Force officers in the ranks of captain and major: 1. Job satisfaction is higher for older oficers who have more time in the service. 2. There is no evidence of a relationship between education level and job satisfaction. 3. Non-rated officers are more satisfied with their jobs than rated officers. 4. Work environment facet satisfactions are interpreted by employees to form three clusters: job properties, interaction features, and organization policy variables. 5. The three clusters of facet satisfactions vary in importance to overall job satisfaction with job properties being most important and organization policies being least important. (Author).
