Abstract
Using a sample of 250 medical technologists (MTs) over a four-year time per iod, this study presents initial evidence for differentiating two different facets of benefit satisfaction-basic and career enrichment. Basic benefit satisfaction exhibited stronger relationships to subsequent general benefit satisfaction, organizational withdrawal intent, and turnover behavior, whi le career enrichment benefit satisfaction exhibited a stronger relationship to subsequent affective organizational commitment.
