“…For married employees the demands of marriage accompanied by the need to be committed to an organization is likely to constitute a threat to one (Patterson 2002). Some indices of marital stress are household chore stress (McGrane, 2011), financial stress (Mann, 2013), relational stress (Ramirez, 2011), parenting stress (Goldberg & Perry-Jenkins, 2004) and elder-care stress (Matzek & Cooney, 2004). Moreover, as the marriage grows older, the length of marriage may bring about increase demands and pressure (Oyewo & Akanbi 2012).…”

A number of studies have been done on work related stress factors in association with job satisfaction. However, there is dearth of studies on marital stress, which is a non-work related stress. This study therefore examines possible relationships between marital stress and employees' job satisfaction. A crosssectional survey utilizing an ex-post facto design was adopted in which purposive sampling technique was used for the selection of 220 hotel employees consisting of 113 (51%) male and 107 (49%) female. Participants completed structured psychological scales which are Marital Stress Inventory and Job Satisfaction Survey. Data was analysed using statistical methods of Pearson correlation and t-test for independent samples. There existed significant relationship between marital stress and job satisfaction. The result further showed that employees with live-in relatives experienced significantly higher job satisfaction than those who do not have live-in relatives. This study suggested the importance of the interface between work life domain and non-work life domain of the employees.

“…This study has three major contributions to the field of international higher education. First, Hagedorn's model has been extensively tested within the United States and it has been shown as adaptable, reliable, and valid in various institutional settings (Conner, 2019;Markus, 2011;McCullough, 2013;Ramirez, 2011). International uses of this framework have been limited and its use on the intended population in this study will help determine its effectiveness and applicability in non-US settings (Bentley et al, 2013).…”

Faculty around the world shares some underlying commonalities by virtue of sharing a profession, but we cannot draw informed parallels because culture, style and history of higher education, and faculty socialization play a significant role in how the faculty life is lived and experienced. We know quite a bit about faculty working in developed and developing nations, but the current snapshot lacks perspectives from academics living in transitional nations. This in-progress study will survey faculty employed at the University of Sarajevo, located in Bosnia and Hercegovina, to establish a baseline of their demographic profile and to describe their job satisfaction using Hagedorn’s conceptual framework. This study will test the applicability of Hagedorn’s framework in non-US settings and expand our understanding of the causes and outcomes related to faculty satisfaction.

“…Изучение причин достижения удовлетворенности общением связывают с рядом разнообразных факторов, например, с достижением положительных ожиданий, результатов [15]. Роль социальных и социально-психологических факторов, влияющих на удовлетворенность своим общением выявлено в работах отечественных психологов: так, снижает удовлетворенность общением в целом низкий статус в коллективе [7], ощущение себя жертвой [6], стареющие [11,15], не получающие необходимое количество и качество взаимодействия с близкими [2].…”

Background. Communication is an essential element of human existence. At the same time, communication can be a goal or a means. The question of satisfaction with communication is often associated with the effectiveness of activities, the achievement of the “necessary” result or satisfaction with life in general. However, the process of communication itself, subjective satisfaction with this process, the quantity of communication and its quality - much less often fall into the focus of scientific attention. The aim of the study was to examine the subjective perception of the available and desired amount of communication of respondents engaged in different professional spheres. Research Methods. In this research respondents were offered a questionnaire to assess various characteristics of communication, such as the amount of communication in general, the distribution of communication by areas (with family, friends, colleagues and clients), the purpose of communication (information exchange, self-expression, experience of emotions, entertainment). This questionnaire is filled out twice - the description of the existing and ideal situation. For our study it is the difference between the actual and the desired that is of interest. As it is this variable, in our opinion, is an indicator of satisfaction with communication. The data were processed using IBM SPSS Statistics Subscription. The following methods of mathematical statistics were used in the study: comparative analysis, Pearson Chi-square, Student’s t-test, multiple analysis of variance (Scheffe test and intergroup effects criterion). Results of the study. As a result of the study, three groups of respondents were identified: those who lack communication, those who overcommunicate, and those who are satisfied with communication. The distribution of the groups showed that there was no relationship between subjective satisfaction with communication and gender, as well as the sphere of activity (“man-human”, “man-technique”), i.e. regardless of the type of activity there were respondents both satisfied with their communication, and experiencing its deficit or overabundance. Communication fatigue is caused by an overabundance of communication with colleagues and clients with a lack of communication in the family. Lack of communication is associated with a lack of opportunity for informal communication in a professional environment and substitution of superficial, shallow communication in a close, family circle. Area of application of the results. The results can be used to work on improving the psychological well-being of the person, through adjusting the quality and quantity of communication in different spheres. The results may be of interest for psychologists, psychotherapists and coaches.
