To measure the importance of dimensions of job satisfaction 144 females registered staff nurses in four East Coast metropolitan hospitals were given an 18-item Likert-type instrument. Results indicated that the traditional intrinsic/extrinsic dichotomy, which exists in elements of job satisfaction, did not apply. The nurses perceived their job satisfaction in a more complex fashion, in that four statistically independent dimensions emerged with "relationship orientations" accounting for almost 24 percent of the total variance. The study implies that previous considerations in job satisfaction for the professional may need to be reexamined in terms beyond the traditional in trinsic/extrinsic dichotomy.
为衡量工作满意度各维度的重要性，对东海岸4家大都市医院的144名女性注册护士使用了一份包含18个条目的李克特量表。结果表明，工作满意度要素中存在的传统内在/外在二分法并不适用。护士们对工作满意度的认知更为复杂，出现了4个统计上独立的维度，其中“关系导向”占总方差的近24%。该研究表明，以往对专业人员工作满意度的考量可能需要超越传统的内在/外在二分法进行重新审视。
