The effects of being born in the United States on the job satisfaction of Asian Americans.
Analysis of the responses of Asian American (n = 178), African American (n = 1,026), and European American (n = 8,118) full-time workers to 21 nationwide surveys representative of the U.S. labor force from 1972 through 1996 showed the job satisfaction of Asian Americans compared to that of the other two groups was affected by whether subjects were born in the United States. In addition, there were no gender differences in job satisfaction among African Americans and European Americans who were and were not born in the U.S., but there were such differences among Asian Americans.
