Data from the responses of 120 park and forest rangers at both the state and federal levels were analyzed relative to stated levels of job satisfaction and perceived degree of bureaucratization in their respective work organizations. While park rangers expressed significantly higher levels of job satisfaction than forest rangers, no significant difference was found between state and federal rangers. The self-perceived degree of bureaucratization under which the rangers worked was found to be negatively related to their job satisfaction. Such perceptions, however, did not appreciably diminish the original differences in job satisfaction noted to exist between park and forest rangers. A tentative explanation for the significant difference in job satisfaction between park and forest rangers is based on the differences in work roles and missions, particularly as these relate to the public. |
