This study developed a measure called the Human Services Job Satisfaction Questionnaire (HSJSQ) and pilot tested the instrument with 215 participants in a training on sex abuse victim treatment. Forty-five of 49 items met criteria for part-whole correlation and correlation with a validation item, and so were retained in the HSJSQ. Scores were lower in subjects who reported a desire to change fields. Factor analysis indicated six factors, labeled Self-Actualization, Achievement Support, Job-Related Affect, Working Conditions, Professional Self-Esteem, and Futility/Avoidance. Relations between HSJSQ scores and a number of demographiC. job, and professional variables are reported.
