q2 i2 Meta-analytic relationships between the facets nature of work (r = −0.34), relationships with colleagues (r = −0.32), and context factors (r = −0.36) and turnover intentions were moderate and comparable in size. → Wartenberg 2023

q2 · i2 · quant-synthesis · r2

Univariate random-effects meta-analyses of facet-specific job satisfaction and turnover intentions, each based on only five to seven studies. The authors caution that the number of facet-specific studies was usually too low for meta-analysis.

"For the job satisfaction facets nature of work (k = 7, r = − 0.34, CI = [− 0.53, − 0.15]), relationship with colleagues (k = 6, r = − 0.32, CI = [− 0.53, − 0.12]), and context factors (k = 5, r = − 0.36, CI = [− 0.41, − 0.31]), the meta-analytic relationships with turnover intentions were moderate and comparable in size"
