El papel modulador de la implicación con el trabajo en la relación entre el estrés y la satisfacción laboral

The job involvement modulating role in the relationship between stress and job satisfaction. This pa- per analyzes the modulator role of job involvement in the relationship between stress and job satisfac- tion, using the OSI (Occupational Stress Indicator) model. For this purpose, we analyzed: six sources of stress, the OSI job satisfaction results, and a job involvement scale. The sample consisted of 779 professional soldiers from the Spanish Army. The results show that when the levels of the two dimen- sions job involvement (psychological identification and job-related feelings of duty-obligation are high, stress due to achievements and career development and social relationships will have no influen- ce on job satisfaction. However, we found higher job satisfaction, even when stress is high, in those si- tuations where psychological identification is low and job-related feelings of duty-obligation are high.
