Answer: The Job Satisfaction-Job Performance Relationship: A Qualitative and Quantitative Review by Judge, T. A., Thoresen, C. J., Bono, J. E., Patton, G. K. (2001) This particular article was selected to study the relationship between job satisfaction and job relationship. To focus on this particular topic both qualitative and quantitative technique was used for analyzing the collected data. The qualitative analysis was based on seven models that reflect the existing research on similar topic. The seven models are- job satisfaction causes performance; job performance causes satisfaction; both are related equally; both share a fake relationship; their relationship is equated by other variables; there is no relationship between the two; and they are based on alternative conceptualization. The validity of the research was tested to find out about 2 meta- analyses of the research variables of job satisfaction and job performance. Previous research on this topic has concluded that job satisfaction and performance are not related directly. However, there were limitations of the existing research as it was based on small sample size. The current research also had the limitation of prior analyses and a misunderstanding of the research findings. To work on this gap, a new meta- analysis was conducted with a larger sample size. The outcome of the new research provided an agenda for further studies on this topic of relationship between job satisfaction and performance. Bibliography Judge, T. A., Thoresen, C. J., Bono, J.
