摘要
This paper's purpose was to investigate the factors that influence female college graduates' job satisfaction. According to the literature, the article divided new entry college graduates' job satisfaction scale into five factors (work rewards, self-development, work itself, leadership behavior, group cooperation). We find that there is no significant difference between male college graduates and female college graduates in overall job satisfaction, work rewards satisfaction, self-development satisfaction, and work itself satisfaction, but there is significant difference in leadership behavior, group cooperation two dimensions. Factors that affect female college graduates' job satisfaction mainly involve work rewards factor, self-development factor, group cooperation factor and graduate school type. These four factors produce different characteristics in demography variables such as profession and school types. © 2012 Springer-Verlag GmbH Berlin Heidelberg.
