| description | This study aims to examine the relationship between job satisfaction and sleep
duration and to investigate how race and ethnicity influence the association
among adult men. The National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979 for
Children and Young Adults (NLSY79 CY) was used for this study. A total of 2609
adult men were chosen for the final sample. The Statistical Package for the
Social Sciences and a moderation model were employed to answer the research
questions. Men’s job satisfaction was positively related to sleep duration. Both
Black and Hispanic men had significantly lower sleep duration than White men. We
found an interaction effect indicating that a Black racial identity moderated the
association of adult men’s job satisfaction and sleep duration. Reducing
unhealthy working conditions and stressors in the workplace may improve job
satisfaction and result in better health through increased sleep duration.
Further, fringe benefits should be expanded to improve men’s sleep duration.
Eliminating racial and ethnic discrimination in the labor market should be more
prioritized and Black men should receive more fringe benefits, which may help to
boost their job satisfaction and result in increased sleep. |
