0. The Job Description Index (JDI) Technique is used for measuring which one of the following?
- Option : A
- Explanation : To measure job attitudes, the Job Description Index (JDI) technique has been developed. The scale provides the worker with a set of adjectives as possible descriptions of five dimensions of the job, including working conditions, pay, promotion, supervision and co-workers. The worker is required to give ‘yes’, ‘no’ or ‘don’t know’ responses, for each adjective. The scale provides a satisfaction score for the five job areas as well as an overall score. This assists the researcher in using the technique as a diagnostic tool. It is possible to ascertain areas in which workers are more satisfied and those in which they are less satisfied. It is, thus, easy to administer.
