Abstract

Perceptual methods of measuring six job characteristic dimensions were developed and validated. A perceptual instrument, called the Job Characteristic Inventory (JCI), demonstrated construct validity, reliability, and convergent and discriminant validity across two diverse samples. Uses of the instrument for research and practice are discussed.
