Job Satisfaction and Perceived Congruence of Attitude between Workers and Supervisors in a Mental Health Setting

Abstract
The Community Mental Health Ideology Scale and Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire were administered to the staff of an outpatient treatment facility. Perceived congruence of attitude and job satisfaction including working conditions, pay, agency policy, and other variables were examined. Congruence of attitude between worker and supervisor was positively related to satisfaction with supervisor and agency policy. There were differences among the various disciplinary groups with those workers who had the least education tending to be satisfied in more spheres than those with more education or advanced professional degrees.
