Abstract

Working in prisons is a demanding career. While a growing number of studies have explored the predictors of job stress, job involvement, and job satisfaction, very few studies have examined how job stress, job involvement, and job satisfaction effect prison staff life satisfaction.

Job involvement and job satisfaction had positive effects on life satisfaction, while job stress had a negative effect.
