- Abstract
The present study analyzed whether one's work orientation can be organized into work orientation profiles beyond the three pure orientations of job, career, and calling. We tested the existence of these hybrid work orientations in a sample of 959 adults aged from 18 to 71 years old (M = 40.61, SD = 9.54). A cluster analysis showed that the best result consisted of four profiles: "Career-Calling", "Career-Job", "Pure Job", and "Indifference". Theoretical and practical implications of profile approach to the study of work orientations are discussed at the end.
