工作满意度的实证研究依赖于两个假设：第一，工资是外生的工作满意度回归，第二，可以推断出适当的相对工资的措施。在本文中，我们使用两个队列的英国大学毕业生测试这两个假设。我们发现，控制了内分泌，直接工资对工作满意度的影响增加了一倍。与工作匹配质量相关的几个变量也会影响工作满意度。获得好学位的毕业生报告的工作满意度更高，花大量时间找工作的毕业生也是如此。最后，我们表明，未来的工资期望和职业抱负对工作满意度有显着的影响，并提供更好的配合比一些临时措施的相对工资。
Empirical studies on job satisfaction have relied on two hypotheses: firstly, that wages are exogenous in a job satisfaction regression and secondly, that appropriate measures of relative wage can be inferred. In this paper we test both assumptions using two cohorts of UK university graduates. We find that controlling for endogeneity, the direct wage effect on job satisfaction doubles. Several variables relating to job match quality also impact on job satisfaction. Graduates who get good degrees report higher levels of job satisfaction, as do graduates who spend a significant amount of time in job search. Finally we show that future wage expectations and career aspirations have a significant effect on job satisfaction and provide better fit than some ad-hoc measures of relative wage.
