Asian Journal of Scientific Research1992-14542077-2076Asian Network for Scientific Information10.3923/ajsr.2008.492.501E. AmahOkey A. OkaforChinwuba 5200815The study of the antecedents of job satisfaction (JS)
is important because of the strategic role JS plays in organisational
productivity. Three pervasive perceptions of work environment, organisational
politics (OP), organisational support (POS) and justice (PJC) predict
JS and affect individual`s decisions in an exchange process. Joint effects
of these variables have been theorized, but never tested. This study tested
the interactive role of OP when POS, PJC and JS are contained in the same
model. The study utilised 400 participants drawn from organisations in
Nigeria. The results of the hierarchical multiple regression analyses,
indicate that PJC and POS have direct effects on JS, while OP interacts
with PJC to predict JS. The study highlights the importance of including
OP, POS and the PJC in JS models.]]>Aiken, L.S. and S.D. West,19911991Allen, D.G., Shore, L.M. and R.W. Griffeth,20032999118Andrews, M.C. and K.M. Kacmar,200122347366Aryee, S., D. Fields and V.
