Dominant achievement goals of older workers and their relationship with motivation-related outcomes (2010, unknown): “Moreover, there is a serious lack of studies including workers aged 60 or above (Bal, De Lange, Jansen, & Van der Velde, 2008; Stroh & Greller, 1995; Warr, 2008).”
Age-related differences in work motivation (2012, background): “…men place more importance on achievement (e.g. Kanfer & Ackerman, 2000; Warr, 2008), power (Page & Baron, 1995), the opportunity to use initiative, a responsible job, and good chances of promotion, while women value more pleasant people to work with, good hours, and meeting people (Warr, 2008).”
Age and work‐related motives: Results of a meta‐analysis (2011, background): “…correlation was corrected for range restriction, i.e., the standard deviation ( SD ) of age in the study relative to the SD of age in the working population (which was estimated at 11 based on the assumption that 95 per cent of the working population is between the ages of 18 and 62; Warr, 2008).”
Does an intrinsic work value orientation strengthen the impact of job resources? A perspective from the Job Demands–Resources Model (2011, background): “As gender, age, educational level, and weekly working hours have been shown to correlate significantly with work orientations as well as work outcomes (Van Ruysseveldt & Smulders, 2008; Warr, 2008), we controlled for these social-demographics when testing the hypotheses.”
On the relationships among work characteristics and learning-related behavior: Does age matter? (2009, background): “…a covariate or confounder in occupational health research, but relatively few studies have taken a life span perspective on vocational interests, values or the importance of various job dimensions such as task complexity, autonomy, and variety (Griffiths, 1997; Kanfer & Ackerman, 2004; Warr, 2008).”
More than money: Developing an integrative multi-factorial measure of entrepreneurial success (2016, background): “It has been found that career prospects and high income are especially valued by younger people who have not yet acquired material goods and related status (Warr, 2008).”
