工作满意度概念的界定始于世纪初。自提出以来，这一概念一直吸引着研究者和管理者的注意，因为它对组织中个人行为的影响。工作满意度对各种概念的影响已经在无数的研究中得到了检验和证明。然而，使用包括许多不同维度在内的各种衡量工具表明，在衡量这一概念的至少基本组成部分方面没有某种共识。今天，大多数使用的问卷来自发展中国家，反映了盎格鲁-撒克逊文化的员工行为。当然，翻译这些问卷而不考虑他们的文化差异，可能不会给我们准确的结果，并损害量表的有效性。本研究旨在通过对基本因素和必要因素的概念进行测量，并开发考虑文化效应的多维工作满意度量表来填补这一空白。由于我们广泛的文献扫描，我们建立了一个量表，包括六个维度的工作满意度的概念。从土耳其和俄罗斯纺织业知名企业家协会中收集了699份数据，通过验证性因素分析对数据进行了信度和效度分析。一般从中小企业和基本上/精神上从两个不同的发展中国家获得的数据前沿的跨文化层面的研究。作为分析的结果，我们试图通过提供一个多维度的工作满意度量表来为企业高管和学者做出贡献。
Abstract Pioneer studies towards the definition of the concept of job satisfaction are based on the beginning of the 20th century. Since its presentation, this concept has been attracting the attention of researchers and executives because of its influence on individuals’ behaviour in organizations. The effects of job satisfaction on the various concepts has been tested and proven in myriad researches. However using diverse measurement instruments including many different dimensions show us that there is no certain consensus of measuring at least basic components of this concept. Today, much of the used questionnaires coming from the developing countries and reflecting the employee behaviour of Anglo-Saxon cultures. By translating those questionnaires without considering their cultural differences, of course, may not give us accurate results and damaging the validity of the scales. This study aims to fill this gap by measuring the concept on the basic and necessary factors, and developing a multidimensional job satisfaction scale reckoning with cultural effect. As a consequence of our extensive literature scanning, we established a scale incorporating six dimensions of job satisfaction concept. 699 data were collected from Turkish and Russian well-known businessmen associations in textile field and analysed through confirmatory factor analysis to assess validity and reliability. The data that obtained generally from the SMEs and basically/mentally from two different developing countries forefront the cross-cultural dimension of the research. As a result of the analysis, we have attempted to contribute to business executives and academics by providing a multidimensional job satisfaction scale.
