In this meta-analytic review, the researcher summarized previous studies by calculating population coefficients for student affairs professionals' job sat-isfaction with its 27 antecedents and two correlates. A total of 42 meta-analyses were carried out from 25 prior studies. Empirical research had examined rela-tionships between student affairs professionals' job satisfaction and demo-graphic characteristics, personal characteristics, job characteristics, role states, institutional characteristics, career commitment, and job-related stress. The meta-analyses revealed that the factors of leadership style, positive job charac-teristics, and higher levels of career commitment were most important con-structive determinants of contributing to student affairs professionals' job satis-faction. The analyses also found that role ambiguity, role conflict and job-related stress inversely correlated with student affairs professionals' job satis-faction. The researcher provided practical implications to improve student af-fairs staff development programs aimed at enhancing job satisfaction based upon the meta-analytic findings. Recommendations included cultivating indi-vidual leadership, creating a positive job environment, increasing a link be-tween staff's career goals and the profession, giving clear and consistent role-related information, and providing staff with methods to manage stressful job conditions.
