ABSTRACT:

Studies have demonstrated that intemal/extemal locus of control impacts job satisfaction. Additionally, research indicates that locus of control relates to many other work-related perceptions. However, few studies exist that investigate the relationship between loc~iso f control and job satisfaction for hotel managers. This study investigates hotel managers' job satisfaction (n = 68), intemdextemal locus tendencies, and the relationship between the two constructs. The results indicate that variables other than the locus personahty construct may relate to hotel managers' perception of job satisfaction. Additionally, the results stimulate the ongoing person versus situation debate in job satisfaction research.
