Job satisfaction is "personal satisfaction relative to the work situation".[1] About 71% of Americans are satisfied with their jobs.[2].

Job satisfaction differs from measuring life satisfaction[3].

Satisfaction has been similarly measured for life in general with single questions[4].

Companies with high job satisfaction have higher earnings.[5]

Measurement

Single items questions correlation with scales with R = 063[4].

Physicians

Measuring physician satisfaction

The SGIM Career Satisfaction Study Group (CSSG) has used literature review and focus groups to develop[6] and refine[7] the Physician Worklife Survey to measure satisfaction and its antecedents. Its scales are:

  • Autonomy
  • Relationships with colleagues
  • Patient care issues (originally labeled relationships with patients)
  • Relationships with staff
  • Personal time
  • Relationships with patients (originally labelled 'intrinsic')
  • Community
  • Pay
  • Administration
  • Resources

Other surveys have been developed[8][9][10][11] including:

  • AAFP TransforMED PCMH National Demonstration Project.[8]

Key factors contributing to well-being have been isolated using factor analysis.[7][12]

Studies of physician satisfaction

Several multisite studies have measured job satisfaction:

  • ACP-MEMO (Minimizing Error, Maximizing Outcome)[13][14]
  • AMA-RAND, 20143[15][16]
  • California community clinics and health centers, 2016[12]
  • Multi-state Commonwealth PCMH study, 2012[17][18]. Included questions from the ACP-MEMO study
  • SGIM Worklife and Wellness, 2016[19]
