A significant model that narrowed the scope of the

Dispositional Theory was the core Self-evaluations Model,
proposed by Timorthy A. Judge in 1998. Judge argued that there
are four Core Self-evaluations that determine one’s disposition
towards job satisfaction: self-esteem, general self-efficacy, locus
of control, and neuroticism. This model states that higher levels of
self-esteem (the value one places on his self) and general self-
efficacy (the belief in one’s own competence) lead to higher work
satisfaction. Having an internal locus of control (believing one has
control over her/his own life, as opposed to outside forces having
control) leads to higher job satisfaction. Finally, lower levels of
neuroticism lead to higher job satisfaction.
Two – Factor Theory (Motivation – Hygiene Theory)
Fredrick Herzberg’s Two factor theory (also known as
Motivator Hygiene Theory) attempts to explain satisfaction and
motivation in the workplace. This theory states that satisfaction
and dissatisfaction are driven by different factors motivation and
hygiene factors, respectively. Motivating factors are those aspects
of the job that make people want o perform, and provide people
with satisfaction. These motivating factors are considered to be
intrinsic to the job, or the work carried out. Motivating factors
include aspects of the working environment such as pay,
company policies, supervisory practices, and other working
conditions.
While Herzberg’s model has stimulated much research,
researchers have been unable to reliably empirically prove the
model, with Hackman & Oldham suggesting that Herzberg’s
original formulation of the model may have been a methodological
artifact. Furthermore, the theory does not consider individual
differences, conversely predicting all employees will react in an
identical manner to changes in motivating/hygiene factors. Finally,
the model has been criticised in that it does not specify how
motivating/hygiene factors are to be measured.

Measuring Job Satisfaction
There are many methods for measuring job satisfaction. By
far, the most common method for collecting data regarding job
satisfacting is the Likert scale (named after Rensis Likert). Other
less common methods of for gauging job satisfaction include:
Yes/No questions, True/False questions, point systems, checklist,
forced choice answers.
The Job Descriptive Index (JDI), created by smith, Kendall,
& Hulin (1969), job satisfaction that has been widely used. It
measures one’s satisfaction in five facets: pay, promotions and
opportunities, coworkers, supervision, and the work itself. The
scale is simple, participants answer either yes, no, or decide in
response to whether given statements accurately describe one
job.
The Job in General Index is an overall measurement of job
satisfaction. It was an improvement to the job Descriptive Index
because the JDI focused too much on individual facets and not
enough on work satisfaction in general.
