title: THE WORK COMPONENTS STUDY (WCS): A REVISED SET OF MEASURES FOR WORK MOTIVATION.
abstract: The present study, through reanalysis of earlier data and the analysis of data from a new sample, reports on the refinement of the Work Components Study (WCS). An earlier study yielded six scores but the present one suggests that one of them should be broken into two, yielding seven scores. It is shown that the internal consistency of these scores is satisfactory and that the scores are relatively independent of each other. Finally, the utility of the scores is evaluated by showing their relationships with measures of personality, ability, and aspirations.
