Abstract

Ratings of 4 motivator job aspects, 4 hygiene job aspects, and overall job satisfaction were obtained from 93 male Ss who were equally satisfied with both the motivator and the hygiene aspects of their jobs. 2 of the job aspects (work itself and opportunity for achievement), both motivators, were sufficient to account for the variance in overall satisfaction.
