JOB SATISFACTION AND LIFE SATISFACTION
There are three traditional paradigms that address the relationship between job satisfaction and life
satisfaction, namely (1) the spillover model, which maintains that there is a positive correlation between job
satisfaction and life satisfaction; (2) the compensatory model, which maintains that the two constructs are negatively
related; and (3) the segmentation model, which sustains that there is no correlation between the two factors
(Bamundo & Kopelman, 1980). However, most contemporary research tends to consistently support the spillover
model (Ilies, Wilson, & Wagner, 2009).
