Abstract

This paper reports an exploration of the discriminant validity of job design as measured by the JDS and JCI and job satisfaction as measured by the JDI, MSQ, IOR, and Stogdill’s satisfaction with work scale (SWS). Job satisfaction as measured by the JDI or MSQ could not be adequately discriminated from job design measures obtained from either the JDS or the JCI. The IOR and S WS could be discriminated from the JDS and JCI.
