Vecchio, Robert P., "Worker Alienation as a Moderator of the Job Quality-Job Satisfaction Relationship: the Case of Racial Differences," Academy of Management Journal, 23 (Fall, 1980), 479-486.
Abstract:
There are significant racial differences in the relationship between education and age with job satisfaction. Age and education are positively related to job satisfaction among whites, but negatively for blacks. This study offers support in favor of the individual difference moderator hypothesis.
