Most of the emotion-centric researches have supported strong association between one’s emotional characteristics and job
satisfaction (Watson & Slack, 1993). Likewise, a comprehensive view of 27 articles by Connolly and
Viswesvaran (2000) recognized that impact of positive and negative affectivity on satisfaction with job. Agho,
Price, and Mueller (1992) reported in their study a significant positive correlation of positive affect and negative
affect with job satisfaction (p = .01, and p = .01, respectively). Prior investigations confirmed that the
individuals vary in their job satisfaction level based on their mood and emotional experiences (Fisher, 2002).
