本研究试图确定在德国、以色列、日本和美国影响工作中心性的工作变量的含义。研究发现，表达取向和社会义务规范对工作中心性的影响是一致的。这些国家的女性对工作中心性的重视程度低于男性；教育水平对工作中心性也有负面影响。其余变量不太一致，但对工作中心性有很强的预测性。在日本和美国，人际关系对工作中心性有负面影响，但在德国和以色列并不显著。工具性取向在三个国家是一个负面预测因素，德国是个例外，权利也是如此，以色列除外。最后，在日本和以色列，实际收入对工作中心性有积极影响，在德国有负面影响，在美国没有影响。不同的文化维度被用来解释这些发现。
An attempt was made to ascertain the meaning of work variables affecting work centrality in Germany, Israel, Japan, and the United States. Expressive orientation and the societal norms of obligation were found to affect work centrality consistently. Females in these countries assigned less importance to work centrality than did males; educational level also contributed negatively to work central ity. The remaining variables were less consistent yet strong predic tors of work centrality. Interpersonal relations had a negative impact on work centrality in Japan and the United States but were not significant in Germany and Israel. Instrumental orientation was a negative predictor in three countries, Germany being the exception, as was entitlement, with the exception of Israel. Finally, actual income had a positive influence on work centrality in Japan and Israel, a negative one in Germany, and none in the United States. Various cultural dimensions are presented to account for these findings.
