Excerpt from The Effects of Structured Development Methods on the Job Satisfaction of Programmer/Analysts: A Theoretical Model
Over the past ten years, the use of various types of structured methods, from structured programming to structured systems analysis, has been advocated as a way of improving productivity and quality in systems development. Proponents of structured methods claim that they simplify systems development by providing guidelines for carrying out the phases of the development lifecycle and by providing a language that facilitates the description and communication of systems requirements and systems designs. This allows programmer/analysts to develop systems more quickly; it also reduces systems errors, and leads to the development of systems that better meet user needs (goldstein, l982a)

Excerpt from The Effects of Structured Development Methods on the Job Satisfaction of Programmer/Analysts: A Theoretical Model
This paper presents a theoretical model that explains the effects of the use of structured development methods on the job satisfaction of programmer/analysts. In the model, the independent variable - the use of structured methods- is hypothesized to have an overall positive effect on the principle dependent variable - the job satisfaction of programmer/analysts. This can be best explained through several intervening variables - role conflict, role ambiguity, task achievement, skill variety, task identity, and autonomy. These are variables that will be significantly affected by the introduction of structured methods and will significantly affect the job satisfaction of programmer/analysts. This paper describes the theoretical model and outlines a quasi experiment that can be used to test the model.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book builds a theoretical model explaining how structured development methods impact programmer/analyst job satisfaction. The model suggests that structured development methods have an overall positive effect on job satisfaction. The increase in satisfaction is explained by several intervening factors such as role conflict, role ambiguity, task achievement, skill variety, task identity, and autonomy. These factors are impacted by structured methods and directly affect programmer/analyst job satisfaction. The book analyzes the effects of structured development methods on performance, such as productivity and the quality of work, and concludes that they positively impact these areas, with no significant effect on job satisfaction. This book offers a comprehensive understanding of the impact of structured development methods on programmer/analyst job satisfaction and performance, providing valuable insights for MIS managers.
