Abstract
We examined relations between organizational perceptions (organizational commitment, organizational conflict) and outcomes (job satisfaction, psychological distress) among a group of 82 New Zealand rehabilitation service providers. Analyses Indicated that organizational commitment made a significant contribution to the prediction of both job satisfaction and feelings of distress while organizational conflict was a significant predictor of job satisfaction. Age and length of service in the organization was significantly related to job satisfaction while level of education was significantly related to distress. Despite a number of limitations, the findings have implications for stress management and professional well being among rehabilitation service providers and illustrate the importance of further understanding of the complex linkages between organizational perceptions and outcomes if agencies involved in rehabilitation are concerned With maintaining a professional organizational environment.
