Popis:	Increasing globalization has resulted in an emerging line of research addressing the cross-national generalizability of job satisfaction measures and its correlates. In this study the authors tested the measurement equivalence of the Italian Managerial Job Satisfaction Survey (MJSS) in six countries. Study 1 involved a group of 800 Italian managers from a multinational firm based in Italy. The MJSS was validated and used to assess four dimensions of job satisfaction. Study 2 cross-nationally verified the findings of Study 1 in five countries: 3,886 managers from Germany, France, Poland, Spain, and Brazil provided data on the four satisfaction facets. Results showed that the four-factor solution of the MJSS-16 was invariant across samples, with data supporting configural, metric, and factor variance and covariance invariance. The Managerial Job Satisfaction Scale may be used for future research to draw meaningful structure-level comparisons across countries (i.e., comparisons dealing with cause-effect relationships).
