The article discusses the proposition that organizational climate interacts with individual personality in influencing job satisfaction and performance. Researches who have analyzed the relative amount of variance accounted for by main effects versus interactive effects are listed.

Individuals congruent with their work environment may perform at a higher rate and be more satisfied than individuals experiencing a lack of fit. It must be assumed that individuals vary in their sensitivity to different organizational climates as well as in behavior.
