Abstract/Summary

This study identified the auric colors of selected professionals working in the fields of business, education, engineering, medicine, and law. This study, likewise, matched the obtained auric colors with career choices. The level of job satisfaction among the matched group was compared with the level of job satisfaction among the unmatched group. The respondents were composed of thirty-one (31) entrepreneurs, twenty-four (24) teachers, thirty-two (32) engineers, thirty-three (33) doctors and twenty-seven (27) lawyers, which include males and females, aged 21 to 65 years and have been practicing their respective professions for at least two (2) years. The researchers used a job satisfaction scale and an instrument done by Dr. Barbara Bowers to determine one's auric color. Wilcoxon-Mann--Whitney test was employed to test the hypothesis.
