这带来了极大的满足感:为什么公平对软件从业者至关重要
It is Giving Major Satisfaction: Why Fairness Matters for Software Practitioners
AI总结:
本研究通过对108名软件从业者的调查和有序逻辑回归分析,揭示四类公平感知显著影响工作满意度,且对弱势群体和经验较少者影响更强。
摘要:
软件从业者经常遭遇工作场所不公平,例如认可不均和性别偏见。尽管公平与工作满意度之间的联系已在其他领域得到确立,但其与软件专业人员的相关性仍未得到充分研究。本研究考察软件从业者的公平感知与工作满意度之间的关系,同时关注总体趋势和不同人口统计群体的差异。我们对108名软件从业者开展了在线调查,随后采用有序逻辑回归分析软件工程情境下公平感知与工作满意度之间的关系,并通过调节分析考察这种关系如何随人口统计群体而变化。研究结果表明,四个公平维度(即分配公平、程序公平、人际公平和信息公平)均显著影响整体工作满意度和工作保障满意度;其中,人际公平的影响最大。对于女性、族裔代表性不足者、经验较少的从业者以及存在工作限制的人员,公平与工作满意度之间的关系更强。署名公平整体上成为影响工作满意度的重要因素,而政策执行公平、高需求情境公平和工作时间公平则影响特定人口统计群体。本研究强调了公平在软件从业者中的作用,为组织促进公平实践提供了策略,并为特定人口统计群体提供了有针对性的方法。
英文摘要:
Software practitioners often encounter workplace unfairness, such as unequal recognition and gender bias. While the link between fairness and job satisfaction has been established in other fields, its relevance to software professionals remains underexplored. This study examines how fairness perceptions relate to job satisfaction among software practitioners, focusing on both general trends and demographic-specific differences. We conducted an online survey of 108 software practitioners, followed by ordinal logistic regression to analyze the relationship between fairness perceptions and job satisfaction in software engineering contexts, with moderation analysis examining how this relationship varies across demographic groups. Our findings indicate that all four fairness dimensions (namely distributive, procedural, interpersonal, and informational fairness) significantly affect overall job satisfaction and satisfaction with job security. Among these, interpersonal fairness has the biggest impact. The relationship between fairness and job satisfaction is stronger for female, ethnically underrepresented, less experienced practitioners, and those with work limitations. Fairness in authorship emerged as an important factor for job satisfaction collectively, while fairness in policy implementation, high-demand situations, and working hours impacted specific demographic groups. This study highlights the role of fairness among software practitioners, offering strategies for organizations to promote fair practices and targeted approaches for certain demographic groups.
