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.

The result shows that turnover intention is affected by age, working period, workplace bulling, relational aggression and self-esteem. For example, turnover intention if higher as working period, workplace bullying, relational aggression is increased while age and self-esteem is decreased.
