| Tiivistelmä: | The research program undertaken by the Meaning of Working (MOW) International Research Team has documented effects of individual characteristics and macrososioeconomic variables on work-related values and beliefs in different countries. The present study adds another dimension to this work by studying intact organizations - local governments in the United States and Japan - in place of the usual MOW samples of occupational groups. The measures used cover the three core facets of the "Meaning of Working" - work centrality, work goals, and entitlement/obligation norms. By studying intact organizations, the effects of other contextual variables - organization, region, and hierarchical level - in addition to country become evident. |
