Psychological Climate and Job Satisfaction: An Examination of Reciprocal Causation.
Abstract
Reciprocal relationships between dimensions of psychological climate and overall job satisfaction were proposed based on a cognitive information processing model. Two waves of data were collected from a sample of Navy enlisted personnel (n=1,110) and were subjected to a cross-lagged panel correlation analysis. The results demonstrated that a reciprocal relationship between each of five dimensions of psychological climate and overall job satisfaction was a viable possibility. However, partial path analytic analyses based on overidentifying conditions demonstrated that other causal models were also consistent with the data. (Author)
