Abstract: |
This study reports results of a
meta-analysis linking traits from the 5-factor model of
personality to overall
job
satisfaction. Using the model as an
organizing framework, 334 correlations from 163 independent
samples were classified according to the model. The estimated
true score correlations with job
satisfaction were -.29 for
Neuroticism, .25 for Extraversion, .02 for Openness to
Experience, .17 for Agreeableness, and .26 for
Conscientiousness. Results further indicated that only the
relations of Neuroticism and Extraversion with
job
satisfaction generalized across
studies. As a set, the Big Five traits had a multiple
correlation of .41 with job
satisfaction, indicating support for
the validity of the dispositional source of
job
satisfaction when traits are
organized according to the 5-factor model. (PsycINFO Database
