Is JSON.stringify failing to function correctly in Mozilla Firefox?

Currently, I am attempting to convert an object into a string in javascript. After stringifying the object, I have noticed some discrepancies between different browsers.

{"jobTypeArray":"[CONTRACT -W2]"}

In Firefox and Chrome, the values appear as follows:

{"jobTypeArray":"[\"CONTRACT -W2\"]"}

It seems that unterminated strings are being added in the JSON.

Below is the code snippet I am using:

var cbJobData = new Object();
var JobTypevalues = [];
for (var i = 0; i < selectJobTypeVal.options.length; i++ ) {
    if (selectJobTypeVal.options[i].selected) {
        JobTypevalues.push(selectJobTypeVal.options[i].value);
    }
}
cbJobData.jobTypeArray = JobTypevalues;

When trying to stringify cbJobdata, I am encountering issues at this stage.

How can this problem be resolved? Is json.stringify specific to IE?

If anyone can assist me with this issue, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
