JOB ATTRIBUTES PREFERRED BY FEMALE HEALTH PROFESSIONALS, BEFORE AND AFTER ENTERING THE WORK FORCE
追踪125名女性卫生专业人员毕业时和入职20个月后对12项工作特征的偏好变化，发现入职后更重视技能发展和受尊重，对安全和晋升的重视下降，且男性化特质与决策参与偏好相关。
A longitudinal study of 125 female health professionals' preferences for 12 job characteristics was carried out at graduation and 20 months later. After employment respondents placed increased importance on skill development and respect received, and less emphasis on security and promotion opportunities. At follow‐up the most valued attributes were skill development, chance to accomplish something worthwhile and friendliness of co‐workers, while physical surroundings, pay and promotion were ranked as least important. Self concept measures derived from Bern's Sex Role Inventory (1974) had not changed since graduation. In both surveys, a significant association was found between masculinity and the importance attached to taking part in decisions. The results contribute to the debate concerning the intrinsic‐extrinsic dichotomy in work motivation.
