Abstract	The quantitative study's purpose was to investigate relationships among five identified job facets of a speech-language pathologist's job and general job satisfaction as identified, organized, and measured by the Job Descriptive Index (JDI; Bowling Green State University, 2009a) and the Job in General scale (JIG; Bowling Green State University, 2009b). The study included an examination of the effects on job satisfaction of people, work, pay, opportunities for promotion, and supervision. Participants were speech-language pathologists licensed and employed by public school districts within Indiana, and the study included analysis based on participants' years of experience. What are the current job satisfaction levels of public school-based speech-language pathologists in the areas of people, work, pay, supervision, opportunities for promption, and the job in general? Do the people, work, pay, supervision, and opportunities for promotion explain a statistically significant amount of variance in the JIG score for speech-language pathologists? Is there a statistically significant difference based on years of experience on the JDI composite scores for speech-language pathologists? The outcome of this study indicated the specific job facets of work, supervision, and pay were significantly related to public school-based speech-language pathologist general job satisfaction. No significant relationship was revealed between job satisfaction and people with whom speech-language pathologists work or opportunities for promotion. Results also showed a significant difference in general job satisfaction between the subgroup of participants with 10 to 20 years of clinical experience and the subgroup with 21 or more years. The 21 or more years of experience subgroup reported higher general job satisfaction. No additional significant differences existed between subgroups.
