Abstract
We speculated that mood would affect responses to global measures of j ob and career satisfaction. We randomly selected 692 pharmacists from the Iowa Board of Pharmacy Examiners' mailing fist. After two follow-u p mailings, 389 questionnaires were received for a usable rate of 56.9 %. ''Good day'' pharmacists were more satisfied with their jobs and ca reers than ''typical day'' pharmacists, supporting the contention that global satisfaction indicators reflect affective satisfaction.
