A Rating Of Human Relations Competencies By Mechanized Agriculture Graduates, Harry L. Field

Department of Agricultural Leadership, Education and Communication: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Scholarship

Mechanized Agriculture/Agricultural Mechanization programs have been in existence since the early 1900's, but no researcher has attempted to determine the human relations competencies that are important for the graduates of these programs to possess.

The level of importance for the competencies was determined by analyzing the results of a questionnaire sent to 120 graduates of the University of Nebraska's Mechanized Agriculture program. The questionnaire included two demographic questions, one on job category and one on graduation period, and …

Job Satisfaction And Job Performance: A Meta-Analysis, Michelle Iaffaldano [Graef], Paul M. Muchinsky

Center on Children, Families, and the Law: Faculty Publications

The assumption that job satisfaction and job performance are related has much intuitive appeal, despite the fact that reviewers of this literature have concluded there is no strong pervasive relation between these two variables. The present meta-analytic study demonstrates that (a) the best estimate of the true population correlation between satisfaction and performance is relatively low (.17); (b) much of the variability in results obtained in previous research has been due to the use of small sample sizes, whereas unreliable measurement of the satisfaction and performance constructs has contributed relatively little to this observed variability in correlations; and (c) nine …
