Influence of perceived co-worker involvement and supervisory support on job satisfaction
Abstract
with the mean age of 27.5years. Two hypotheses were formulated and tested. The first hypothesis predicted that “there will be a statistically
significant influence of co worker involvement on job satisfaction”. The second hypothesis predicted that “there will be a statistically significant
influence of supervisory support on job satisfaction”. A 2 x 2 factorial design was used to collect data and a 2 way ANOVA was used to
analyze data. The results of the findings relating to the first hypothesis indicated that perceived coworkers involvement have a significant influence
on job satisfaction [F(1,146) = 137.38, p< .05]. The results also revealed that the second hypothesis was confirmed, Supervisory support was shown to significantly influence job satisfaction [F(1,146) = 20.63, p< .05, thus the researchers accepted the hypothesis. The interaction of perceived co-worker involvement and supervisory support on job satisfaction was also significant. [F(1,146) = 44.66, p< .05]. The researchers discussed the findings in this study in relation to the existing empirical studies.
