Are attitudes toward work and perceptions of the ben-
efits of work transmitted from parents to youth simi-
larly across a variety of cultural contexts? What
determines the centrality of work to one's life? How are
intrinsic work values (intangible rewards such as auton-
omy, learning opportunities, and self-fulfillment) and
extrinsic work values (such as status, income, and finan-
cial safety) shaped; and how do these work attitudes
have consequences in the political, economic, and well-
being domains? Are the determinants of work values
robust across countries, and do the consequences of
having certain work values differ by country? These
research questions guide this issue of The ANNALS.
This introductory article clarifies key concepts underly-
ing the volume and provides an overview of the data
sources and analytic approaches addressed in the indi-
vidual contributions. Most importantly, we provide a
broad theoretical framework with notions from various
disciplines aimed at giving readers a fuller grasp of the
multifaceted significance of work values.
