La relación entre importancia y valencia

Abstract

This study tested the hypothesis that the importance and valence of work factors are related by a V function: the greater the importance, the more extreme the positivo or negative valence. Importance pertained to abstract work dimensions (e.g., Pay) and valence to concrete elements (e.g., a salary of 1'200,000 soles). Tite results of between and within subjects correlational analyses supported the hypothesis, though in greater extent when ratings rather than rankings were used to measure importance.
