title: Job satisfaction among hospice interdisciplinary team members.
abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate job satisfaction among hospice interdisciplinary team (IDT) members. Interdisciplinary team members (N = 76) from several hospices in Ohio participated in the study. Pearson product-moment correlations (p < .05) revealed that there were significant relationships between job satisfaction and autonomy, role ambiguity, role conflict, supervisory support, task significance, routinization, positive affectivity, negative affectivity, and team functioning. Multiple regression analysis (p < .05) revealed that supervisory support, positive affectivity, role ambiguity, autonomy, and routinization were significant predictors of job satisfaction.
