To develop a multidimensional scale to measure work satisfaction among pharmacy faculty members and determine its reliability and validity.
A literature review was used to assist in the generation of 36 statements that putatively comprise the satisfaction construct. The 25 items meeting a priori criteria in a modified Delphi procedure were included in a questionnaire sent by e-mail to 4,228 pharmacy faculty members. Principal axis factoring and scale purification procedures were used to identify a plausible factor structure.
Using responses acquired from 885 pharmacy faculty members, 6 domains of work satisfaction were identified: resources for scholarship, institutional support and reward, requirements for tenure and promotion, availability of a graduate program, collegiality, and teaching environment. The overall measure demonstrated construct validity, while each domain subscale exhibited relatively high internal consistency reliability.
The overall work satisfaction measure and each subscale derived from composite domains can be used to identify sources of discontent and/or track interventions designed to improve work satisfaction.
开发一个多维量表来衡量药学教员的工作满意度，并确定其信效度。
通过文献综述辅助生成36条陈述，这些陈述被认为构成了满意度结构。在经过改进的德尔菲程序中符合先验标准的25个项目被纳入一份通过电子邮件发送给4228名药学教员的问卷中。采用主轴因子分析和量表纯化程序来确定合理的因子结构。
利用从885名药学教员那里获得的回复，确定了工作满意度的6个领域：学术资源、机构支持与奖励、 tenure和晋升要求、研究生项目的可获得性、同事关系以及教学环境。总体测量显示出结构效度，而每个领域子量表都表现出相对较高的内部一致性信度。
总体工作满意度测量以及从复合领域得出的每个子量表可用于识别不满的来源和/或跟踪旨在提高工作满意度的干预措施。
