Skala Satysfakcji z Pracy – Pomiar poznawczego aspektu ogólnego zadowolenia z pracy
Abstract
A new concept of job satisfaction demands an independent measure of two components of
job satisfaction (its emotional and cognitive aspects). A classification of techniques for assessing
the cognitive aspect of job satisfaction is made and their usefulness for study of different topics
is presented. The Satisfaction With Job Scale allows to measure the cognitive aspect of overall
job satisfaction. The paper indicates the sources of construction of The Satisfaction With Job Scale.
It comprises the technique description, its psychometric properties and validity scores in a heterogeneous
group, as well as in four categories of job. The internal reliability of the scale is high – in the
heterogeneous group Cronbach’s Alpha is 0,864 (in four groups: 0,814–0,888). The scale has
a one-dimensional structure: Factor analysis (principal components) yields one component with
eigenvalue exceeding unity which accounted 65,5% of the total variance in the whole group (in four groups: 58,5%–69,8%). The scale shows high convergent validity with other measure of
cognitive aspect of job satisfaction and discriminant validity in relation to measures of emotional
aspects of job satisfaction and to cognitive aspect of overall life satisfaction. The data show that
The Satisfaction with Job Scale is a valuable instrument for measure of overall job satisfaction.
