Development and Validation of a Life-Success Measures Scale
This paper describes development and validation of an instrument measuring life-success values related to the domains of both work and personal life. The results ( N = 756) from two studies identified six forms of life-success, finding that values of success in work and personal lives were significantly correlated with affective work behaviors. The implications for managing a workforce with varied life-success values are discussed
Self-confidence of managers in work and social situations
Effects of Generation and Sex on Dimensions of Life Success
Six dimensions of life success were assessed for three generations of U.S. working women and men: those under 26 years, those born between 1946–1964 (the baby-boom), and people over 43 years. Some generational differences were noted among the 716 people studied, but sex appeared to be a better predictor of life success scores than did age The sex gap may be closing for the youngest group of workers
Sex role conflict in sex‐atypical jobs
Motivation Needs and Their Relationship to Life Success
This article reports on a study of the relationship between motivation needs (achievement and power) and six measures of life success (status/wealth, contribution to society, professional fulfillment, family relationships, personal fulfillment, and security). Respondents were 756 full-time managerial and nonmanagerial service industry workers (439 women, 317 men) in the Southeast Florida area of the U.S. Results indicate that need for achievement…
Ethnic Differences in the Relationship between Job Satisfaction and Sex-Role Conflict among Hispanic and Nonhispanic White Individuals
The study compared sex-role conflict and job satisfaction scores and correlations among a broad sample of 71 Cuban and Central American Hispanic and 120 nonHispanic men and women working in the South Florida area. Analysis showed that the Hispanic respondents had lower satisfaction with pay, supervision, and co-workers, but were similar to nonHispanic white subjects in sex-role conflict and satisfaction with work and promotion. For the Hispanic g…

A Generational and Sex-Based View of Managerial Work Values
In a study of 252 managers' work values for those born during the US baby-boom of 1946–64 and those born before the baby-boom were compared; sex differences also were examined. The most important work value in both groups is accomplishment, but significant differences between groups suggest that baby-boom managers—regardless of sex—base their belief systems more on humanistic/moralistic values than do prebaby-boom managers whose values are more t…

Gender differences in conflict resolution styles of managers
Religion and attitudes toward work
This study examined the relationship of specific religions and degree of religious beliefs to various job‐related attitudes and values such as motivational needs, job satisfaction, work ethic, and work, job and organizational commitment. Subjects were 222(107 male, 115 female) managerial and non‐managerial workers in the Rocky Mountain area. Results showed no significant correlations between work‐related altitudes and specific religious affiliati…
Role of Age in Sex-Role Conflict
A study of 556 working women and men examined the relationship between degree of sex-role conflict and age of the individual. For both women and men, mean sex-role conflict scores were significantly greater at age 26 to 39 yr. than at age 40 and over. Women aged 25 and below also scored significantly higher than did women aged 40 and over
Relationship between Type a Behavior Pattern and Motivational Needs
Type A/B behavior pattern, motivational needs, and several job-related attitudes and characteristics were examined for a group of 799 working men and women (358 men, 441 women) in a wide variety of occupations and hierarchical positions. Results of multiple regression analysis indicated that Type A individuals tend to be higher in n Ach, n Pwr, job commitment and managerial responsibilities, but lower in job satisfaction than Type B persons. Type…
Personalized vs. Socialized Power Needs Among Working Women and Men
Nonmanagerial and professional women subjects have significantly higher socialized power (s Pwr) needs than their men colleagues but similar needs for power (n Pwr) and personalized power (p Pwr). Although s Pwr and n Pwr correlate negatively with degree of job commitment, age, and number of children for the total sample and for the male subset, the same is not true for the females. The level of sex-role conflict and family pressure is higher for…
Motivation of Managers
Respondents consisted of 124 working managers (62 men, 62 women) whose needs for Achievement ( nAch), Affiliation ( nAff), and Power ( nPwr) were tested using two types of Thematic Apperception Tests, male-oriented and balanced as to sex. Results of a two-way ANOVA indicate that women managers have a higher nAch, a not significantly different nAff, and a higher nPwr than managerial men. Changing social values as well as the obstacles women face i…
