This paper investigates the determinants of job satisfaction in Italy with particular emphasis on social relations. Our econometric analysis is based on four waves (1993, 1995, 1998 and 2000) of the Multipurpose Household Survey conducted annually by the Italian Central Statistics Office. The results of ordered probit regressions and robustness tests show that volunteering and meetings with friends are significantly and positively correlated with job satisfaction, with religious participation playing the biggest role. Our findings also show that meetings with friends increase job satisfaction through self-perceived health.

As a result, turnover intention has been incorporated in most turnover models developed in the past years (Lambert, Hogan and Barton, 2001). Fishbein and Ajzen's (1975: 369) stressed that "the best predictor of an individual's behavior will be measure of his intention to perform that behavior".…”

This study's aim is to examine the relationship among job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and turnover intention of employees. A model of job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and turnover intention is developed and tested in one field study. In this study, using a 250 employees of a Turkish manufacturing company, were given questionnaires to complete during regular working hours; 188 completed questionnaires were returned.. Job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and turnover intention are popular topics in the study of work related attitudes. The main objective of this article is to test the relationships among job satisfaction, organizational commitment and turnover intention. Structural equation modeling to test research hypotheses is used and the model that has high reliability and validity is developed. The results indicate that job satisfaction is one of the most antecedents of organizational commitment and turnover intention and suggest that high levels of job satisfaction results in higher commitment and lower turnover intention so job satisfaction positively influences on affective commitment, continuance commitment, and normative commitment while it is negatively impact on turnover intention. The results emphasize the need to consider the factors can be having effects on the relationship by highlighting to studies conducted on job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and turnover intention.

This study reports on the kind of school leadership style that best suits for promoting teachers' job satisfaction in primary schools in Tanzania. The study employed cross sectional research design with samples of 200 teachers from 20 selected primary schools in Songea and Morogoro districts. Interviews, documentary analysis and questionnaires were used to collect data. The data were analyzed both qualitatively and quantitatively using tables, frequencies and percentages. It was found that the democratic leadership style was the most dominant in best performing primary schools. It is therefore suggested that there is much to be learnt with democratic leadership style as a copying strategy in least performing primary schools. Moreover, level of teachers' job satisfaction was reportedly high in best performing schools compared to least performing schools. The findings commended that democratic leadership style is the one which promotes high teachers' job satisfaction among teachers in primary schools.
