The development of an occupational attributional style questionnaire
研究开发了针对工作事件的职业归因风格问卷（OASQ），发现对积极事件的归因与职业地位、薪资、工作满意度和动机显著相关，支持乐观归因风格与工作满意度及动机的关联。
Abstract Ninety working adults completed the OASQ — an occupational attributional style questionnaire aimed specifically at examining attributions for work‐related events. They also completed well‐known and validated measures of job satisfaction and intrinsic motivation. The OASQ was shown to have satisfactory internal reliability. Attributions for positive events, rather than negative events, were significantly correlated with demographic variables like occupational status and salary but also job satisfaction and motivation. The study supports previous work to the effect that an ‘optimistic’ internal attributional style at work is associated with satisfaction and motivation.
