The Impact of Organizational Cynicism, Motivation Deficit, and Social Interaction on Job Satisfaction with Emotional Stability as a Mediator
Abstract
Organizational cynicism, lack of drive, and social interactions were studied in relation to job satisfaction and mild emotional stability. Structured questionnaires from Quetta were utilized for quantitative personnel in Baluchistan schools, hospitals, banks, and universities. This study utilized a quantitative research design, Pearson correlation, and mediation analysis to explore the relationship between variables. Organizational cynicism and job urgency were strongly and negatively related to job satisfaction, underlining the negative impact of endophenotypes such as negative attitude and lack of motivation. However, social interactions positively influenced job satisfaction, verifying the notion that social interactions in the workplace impact satisfaction. Cynicism was mitigated by emotional stability, preventing an unhappy and disillusioned workforce. The results underscore the need to improve organizational support, procedural justice, and meaningfulness to mitigate cynicism. Facilitating social interactions, particularly in the workplace, can increase enjoyment and productivity. This study informs managers and stakeholders on how to improve employee happiness and retain them.
