Patterns of Short-Term Changes in Individuals' Work Values: P-Technique Factor Analyses of Intraindividual Variability.

Schulenberg, John E.; And Others

Multivariate Behavioral Research, v23 n3 p377-95 Jul 1988

To examine the magnitude/nature of short-term fluctuations in work values, seven college students completed the Work Values Inventory daily for approximately 100 days. Results of factor analysis cast doubt on the hypothesis that work values behave exclusively as trait-like dimensions and recommend better use of idiographic approaches. (TJH)
