Measurement Issues Concerning the Use of Inventories of Job Satisfaction.

Buckley, M. Ronald; And Others

Educational and Psychological Measurement, v52 n3 p529-43 Fall 1992

The construct validity of these inventories is modest, but this problem can be corrected through proper application of structural equation models. (SLD)
