Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
A survey was conducted of the graduates of a medical technology program to assess their feelings about their jobs. Specifically, the study attempted to determine the relationship between a "sense of accomplishment" and "career commitment." The relationship between job satisfaction and sense of accomplishment was also studied. Analysis using chi-square revealed a relationship between the respondent's sense of accomplishment and career commitment. Responses on accomplishment were then compared in terms of the graduates' ratings of selected job characteristics. These findings are compatible with those of other studies on job satisfaction of medical technologists. That is, medical technologists are a group whose motivational factors tend to be intrinisic to the job. These factors can be identified as achievement, recognition for achievement, the work itself, responsibility, and growth or advancement. The findings have implications for determining components related to job satisfaction in administrative practices. |
