TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated the extent to which job titles and job characteristics contribute to the job satisfaction of employees at a Midwestern United States utility and transportation company using Hackman & Oldham's Job Characteristics Model (1976) and Katz and Van Maanen's (1977)Loci of Work Satisfaction.
Abstract: The current study aims to investigate the extent to which job titles and job characteristics contribute to the job satisfaction of employees at a Midwestern United States utility and transportation company using Hackman & Oldham’s Job Characteristics Model (1976) and Katz and Van Maanen’s (1977)Loci of Work Satisfaction. It assumes if job titles are designated based on these characteristics—then employees will be more satisfied and therefore more motivated and productive. The researchers undertook an ethnophenomenological approach with a data of 25 full-time employees who were interviewed about their overall experience regarding their job and how they feel the five core dimensions of work satisfaction (Hackman & Oldham, 1976) are related to their job titles using a semi-structured pattern following Kvale’s (1996) framework. Results demonstrate that employees in this organization feel that job titles significantly impact their overall job satisfaction and responded positively to all five of the core job characteristic dimensions. However, employees who feel that their job title affects their external rapport perceived a need to alter their job titles. This study was restricted to self-report measures at a single organization.

TL;DR: Kim et al. as discussed by the authors analyzed personal traits of IT workers to examine how these traits affect their job commitment and further extended its analysis on the effects of job satisfaction on job satisfaction, finding that extraversion, openness to experience, agreeableness, and conscientiousness had a significant effect on job commitment.
Abstract: This study analyzed personal traits of IT workers to examine how these traits affect their Job Commitment. Moreover, it further extends its analysis on the effects of job satisfaction on job satisfaction. A survey questionnaire was distributed to IT workers working in Seoul and Daegu in South Korea from September 15 to October 15, 2015. This questionnaire was distributed by e-mail by the Korean Social Science Data Center (KSDC, http://www.ksdcdb.kr/main.do) to computer programmers, IT consultants, and other IT practitioners. First, hypotheses 1, 3, 4, and 5 were supported by the results showing that extraversion, openness to experience, agreeableness, and conscientiousness had a significant effect on job commitment. Second, Hypothesis 2 was not supported by the result as it showed that neuroticism did not have a significant effect on job commitment. Finally, Hypothesis 6 was supported by the result as it showed that job commitment by IT workers has a positive effect on job satisfaction.
