Inhalt:
This book provides a deeper understanding of job satisfaction and the circumstances under which people participate in various activities, coloring their subjective relationships to them. It also explores the effects of labor market changes and working conditions on work orientations and work attitudes. The analyses in each of the chapters make use of survey data from different countries, an approach which allows international comparisons, providing information from Europe, North America, and beyond
