First of all, as the result of the correlation analysis of each of variables, a positive correlation was found between self-esteem and job satisfaction but negative correlation between self-esteem they have, the more job satisfaction they get, the lower turnover intention they have. Second, we tried to find out how self-esteem affect them on their job satisfaction. Using regression analysis, we can see that job satisfaction is affected by age, workplace bullying, relational aggression and self-esteem. For example, job satisfaction is increased as they get old and self-esteem is improved, on the other hand, workplace bullying and relational aggression is decreased. Third, to find out how self-esteem affects their turnover intention, we did regression analysis. The result shows that turnover intention is affected by age, working period, workplace bulling, relational aggression and self-esteem.
