Abstract
This study assesses the effects of the family environment on men's job satisfaction and self-esteem. The results indicate that men's family environment as measured by the Family Environment Scale (Moos & Moos, 1974) predicts only three aspects of job satisfaction as measured by the Job Descriptive Index (Smith, Kendal, & Hulin, 1975). In addition, results indicate that the family environment has a limited effect on men's self-esteem as measured, by the Four Component Self-Esteem Scale (Hampilos, 1988). The authors conclude that the limited relationship between these measures may be due to men's lack of involvement in their family and that men continue to have a traditional view of their role in the family as that of provider and disciplinarian. Implications for counseling are discussed.
