The present study was conducted on 210 managerial personnel to examine the role of life events stress and individualism-collectivism in job satisfaction. The results indicate that person positive and total positive stresses were found to be significantly and positively correlated with satisfaction (job&total). Correlation coefficient of job positive stress was found significantly and positively correlated with satisfaction (management & total). Collectivism was found to be significantly negatively correlated with satisfaction (management &total). Individualism- collectivism was found to be significant predictors of satisfaction (job, management &total). Managers who scored high on positive life events stress and individualism were found to have higher job satisfaction than those who scored high on negative life events stress and collectivism.

Abstract


The present study was conducted on 210 managerial personnel to examine the role of life events stress and individualism-collectivism in job satisfaction. The results indicate that person positive and total positive stresses were found to be significantly and positively correlated with satisfaction (job&total). Correlation coefficient of job positive stress was found significantly and positively correlated with satisfaction (management & total). Collectivism was found to be significantly negatively correlated with satisfaction (management &total). Individualism- collectivism was found to be significant predictors of satisfaction (job, management &total). Managers who scored high on positive life events stress and individualism were found to have higher job satisfaction than those who scored high on negative life events stress and collectivism.
