Author(s)
By use of multiple logistic regression analysis of the questionnaire data of 465 knowledge-based staff in the culture industry of a province in the Western China, the author has found that the three main factors related to job satisfaction and the turnover intention are not simply negatively correlative, which differs from the former classical studies of relationship between job satisfaction and turnover intention. This research has discovered that 1) the factor of career development satisfaction is not predictable on the turnover intention probability; 2) the turnover intention of the knowledge-based staff who have low satisfaction with the job itself is not higher than those who have high satisfaction with their jobs; 3) the turnover intention of the staff with low pay satisfaction is lower than those with high pay satisfaction, that is, the knowledge-based employees with higher pay satisfaction have correspondingly higher probability of turnover intention, compared with those with lower pay satisfaction; 4) such covariates as gender, age, educational background, professional title, income level, position, working years, the number of previous work units being considered, all mentioned demographic characteristics above but the income level have no significant influence on turnover intention; the employees with low income levels are more unwilling to leave than those with higher monthly income level.

Does Immigration Promote the Investment of the Monopolistic Firm?

In the present paper, we examine the effect of increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth on the optimal timing of investment of a firm that has a monopolistic power over the labor market. It is revealed that when the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is more than a threshold level, increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth accelerates the optimal timing of firms’ investment and enhances the economic growth, even if the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is formulated by the geometric Brownian motion, which is in sharp contrast to the standard result that an increase in the uncertainty postpones the optimal timing. With an increase in the immigrants over the past ten years, workforces in the host countries have been growing significantly to the extent that the immigrants represent 70% of the increase in the workforce in Europe, and 47% in the United States as OECD indicates. In the present paper, we attempted to investigate the effect of increased uncertainty caused by the growi...
