Relationship to Work Questionnaire: Validation among French Canadian Workers
International Journal for Educational and Vocational Guidance, v25 n1 p45-83 2025
This study aims to assess the psychometric qualities of the Relationship to Work Questionnaire (RWQ). Confirmatory factor analyses on 845 French--Canadian workers support a six-dimension structure: Absolute centrality of work, Relative centrality of work and work valence, Purposes of work, General expectations regarding working life, Obligations and duties of employers and society to workers, and Obligations and duties of workers to employers and society. Furthermore, configurational, metric, and scalar invariances were observed for age, gender, education, and job qualification. Results also support convergent validity of the examined sub-dimensions. Discussion focuses on the study's limitations and RWQ's usefulness for research and practice.
