The general objective of the study was to empirically test a
reciprocal model of job satisfaction and life satisfaction
while controlling for some social demographic variables. 827
employees working in 34 car dealerships in Northern Quebec (56%
responses rate) were surveyed. The multiple item questionnaires
were analysed using correlation analysis, chi square and ANOVAs.
Results show interesting patterns emerging for the relationships
between job and life satisfaction of which 49.2% of all individuals
have spillover, 43.5% compensation, and 7.3% segmentation type
of relationships. Results, nonetheless, are far richer and the
model becomes much more refined when social demographic indicators
are taken into account. Globally, social demographic variables
demonstrate some effects on each satisfaction individually but
also on the interrelation (nature of the relations) between life
and work satisfaction.
