title: Job satisfaction among substance abuse prevention personnel.
abstract: This study of military substance abuse prevention personnel examined the relationship of job satisfaction with perceived importance to unit mission and frequency of performance vis-a-vis five prevention duties. Findings indicated a positive association between job satisfaction and perceived importance for all five duties. Results suggest a conditional positive relationship between performance frequency and job satisfaction only for duties involving one-to-one interaction. Findings applicable to non-military settings and implications for further research are discussed.
