Enhancing Job Satisfaction through a Rogers- and Holland-Based Counseling Program: A Quasi-Experimental Study among Jordan River Foundation Employees

This study examined the effectiveness of a counseling program based on Rogers’ person-centered theory and Holland’s theory of vocational personalities and work environments in enhancing job satisfaction among employees of the Jordan River Foundation. The study adopted a quasi-experimental design using an experimental group and a control group. Data were collected using a job satisfaction scale administered after the implementation of the counseling program. The results showed statistically significant differences between the experimental and control groups in post-test job satisfaction scores, in favor of the experimental group. This indicates that the counseling program was effective in improving employees’ job satisfaction. The results also showed no statistically significant differences in post-test job satisfaction scores within the experimental group according to gender. The study highlights the value of theory-based counseling interventions in promoting workplace satisfaction and employee well-being.

Abstract

This study examined the effectiveness of a counseling program based on Rogers’ person-centered theory and Holland’s theory of vocational personalities and work environments in enhancing job satisfaction among employees of the Jordan River Foundation. The study adopted a quasi-experimental design using an experimental group and a control group. Data were collected using a job satisfaction scale administered after the implementation of the counseling program. The results showed statistically significant differences between the experimental and control groups in post-test job satisfaction scores, in favor of the experimental group. This indicates that the counseling program was effective in improving employees’ job satisfaction. The results also showed no statistically significant differences in post-test job satisfaction scores within the experimental group according to gender. The study highlights the value of theory-based counseling interventions in promoting workplace satisfaction and employee well-being.
