Abstract:

In 2011, for the first time, the famous Job Descriptive Index (JDI) family of
job satisfaction surveys were translated into Japanese by a team of four
esteemed Japanese university professors. This book describes the forward-back
translation of the surveys and the potential future of the JDI surveys in
Japan once they have been validated. Any multinational Japanese company is
herewith invited to participate in the validation of the surveys by offering a
survey sample of both its Japan-based and USA-based employees. Once the
surveys are validated in Japanese, they will be considered legitimate
international surveys and a powerful new scientific set of tools will be
available for use in Japan.
