Abstract

The relationship between job satisfaction and productivity is one that has been examined at greatlength over the years. Consider Locke’s claim that as of 1976, approximately 3,350 articles on thistopic were in circulation (Okpara 2004). In 1992 Cranny et al. reported the existence of at least 5,000 ofsuch manuscripts (Okpara 2004). Numerous studies have been conducted in this field of inquiry, andthis paper endeavors to build upon that collective effort. Here, the focus is on the relationship betweenjob satisfaction and productivity among the professors of a major research university in south Florida;while its scope is limited to the College of Arts and Sciences. More specifically, this paper asks: whatis this relationship? And what effect might it have on the quality of higher education in America?
