title: A comparative analysis of the relationship between organizational climate and job satisfaction of medical technologists.
abstract: This study  examines the quality of the total workplace enviroment (organizational climate) as a correlate of six dimensions of job satisfaction for a sample of 344 medical technologists. The main focus is upon comparisons of administrators versus nonadministrators, hospital laboratory personnel versus nonhospital laboratory personnel, and men versus women. Various dimensions or organizational climate were found to be important correlates of job satisfaction, and similarities and differences between the units of analysis are noted. Also discussed are the implications for the managers of medical technologists.
