The Influence of Cognitive Lapses, Task load, Perceived Stress on Level of Job Satisfaction

Country India
Abstract This study explores how cognitive lapses, perceived task load, and occupational stress collectively influence job satisfaction among Indian working professionals. Rather than measuring cognitive ability directly, the research utilizes the Cognitive Failures Questionnaire (CFQ) to capture everyday cognitive slips, which are interpreted as indicators of cognitive functioning under work demands. Drawing from a sample of 108 professionals across high-demand sectors such as IT, healthcare, and education, this cross-sectional study employs validated instruments (CFQ, NASA-TLX, PSS-10, MSQ-SF) to investigate key relationships. Findings reveal that more frequent cognitive lapses and higher levels of perceived stress are significantly associated with lower job satisfaction. A perceived task load, while related to stress, shows a more complex, indirect relationship with job satisfaction. Additionally, moderation analyses indicate that high levels of job autonomy and task variety may amplify the negative effects of cognitive lapses on satisfaction. These results highlight the need to align job designs with cognitive capacities and stress management strategies to foster sustainable employee well-being and performance in dynamic Indian workplaces.
