Satisfied employees are essential to an organization, as they are often the primary means for meeting organizational needs. Job satisfaction is particularly important among criminal justice agencies, specifically probation agencies that largely rely on personnel for the supervision and rehabilitation of individuals. Yet, the correlates of job satisfaction among juvenile probation staff are largely unknown. Following organizational climate theory, the current study utilizes baseline data from the Juvenile Justice–Translational Research on Adolescents in the Legal System (JJ-TRIALS) initiative, a project conducted in seven states with 36 participating juvenile probation agencies. Factor analysis and structural equation modeling were utilized to examine the latent structure of organizational characteristics and potential mediating effects. Regression analyses were utilized to examine the direct relationship between job satisfaction and personal and organizational factors. Results highlight the importance of workplace factors and suggest efforts toward improving job satisfaction should focus on the improvement of organizational characteristics.

检查与缓刑人员工作满意度相关的个人和感知的组织特征

满意的员工对于组织至关重要,因为它们通常是满足组织需求的主要手段。在刑事司法机构中,特别是在很大程度上依赖于人员进行个人监督和康复的缓刑机构中,工作满意度尤其重要。然而,在青少年缓刑工作人员中,工作满意度的相关性在很大程度上尚不清楚。根据组织气候理论,本研究利用来自少年司法-法律体系中青少年的转化研究(JJ-TRIALS)计划的基线数据,该计划在七个州进行,有36个参与青少年缓刑机构。因子分析和结构方程模型被用来检查组织特征的潜在结构和潜在的中介作用。回归分析用于检验工作满意度与个人和组织因素之间的直接关系。结果强调了工作场所因素的重要性,并建议为提高工作满意度而进行的努力应着重于改善组织特征。
