Race Differences in Job Satisfaction: A Reappraisal Journal of Human Resources 16,2 (Spring 1981): 294-303. Also: http://www.jstor.org/stable/145514 Cohort(s): Older Men Publisher: University of Wisconsin Press Keyword(s): Discrimination, Racial/Ethnic; Job Satisfaction; Occupational Aspirations; Wages This article has shown that the blacks in the NLS Older Men sample were significantly more satisfied with their jobs in l966, l969, and l971 than whites with similar personal, job and location characteristics. While blacks do earn lower full wages than whites and should therefore be less satisfied, discrimination may have also caused blacks to be satisfied with less. In the case of older men, this direct effect of race on job satisfaction dominates and becomes increasingly important over time. For other cohorts, the available evidence is also consistent with greater impact of the effect over time. |
