- Title
Sex Differences in the Determinants of Job Satisfaction.
- Authors
Weaver, Charles N.
- Abstract
Three replicate regressions of three independently drawn U. S. national samples reveal few significant sex differences among white workers for 13 reported determinants of job satisfaction when the effects of a number of other variables are held constant. The absence of significant sex differences in overall level of job satisfaction reported in numerous national surveys, despite women's typically lower job prestige and wages, is explained as the intervening influence of a discrepancy for employed women between the objective conditions and their subjective evaluations of work.
