Iob satisfaction was e pected to be indirectly related to turnover by virtue of the mediating role of behavioral intentions. /onsistent with these e pectations! a strong positive relationship was indicated between behavioral intentions and turnoverJ a strong negative relationship between "ob satisfaction and behavioral intentionsJ and a small negative relationship between "ob satisfaction and turnover. &he results of the modifier analysis suggested that effect sizes are fairly robust to differences in study designs! response rates! and methods of measuring "ob satisfaction! but the manner in which behavioral intentions were operationalized appeared to moderate the relationship between behavioral intentions and turnover and "ob satisfaction.
