1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The construction of a fulfilling career and the people management processes within organizations, like the selection of personnel, require a multidisciplinary approach that takes into account psychological, social, and cultural factors. Various concepts have been suggested to explain work motivations and organizational outcomes, including work values. Work values can encompass individual preferences, as well as moral standards and social norms. This broad definition has led to a variety of work value measurement instruments. One brief and cutting-edge measure that integrates different approaches is the New Work Values Scale (NWVS). The aim of this study was to validate the Italian form of this measure (NWVS-I). A sample of 397 Italian adults from 19 to 66 years of age (M = 30.78, SD = 13.38) participated in the study and completed both the New Work Values Scale-Italian form (NWVS-I) and the Portraits Value Questionnaire (PVQ). First, we evaluated the structure of the New Work Values Scale-Italian form (NWVS-I) through confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), followed by a concurrent validity analysis correlating the dimensions of the New Work Values Scale-Italian form (NWVS-I) with those assessed by the Portraits Value Questionnaire (PVQ). We also tested gender invariance. The results confirmed the factor structure of the scale and its validity in the Italian context. The New Work Values Scale-Italian form (NWVS-I) is a useful measure in understanding the work values of individuals in the Italian context. This measure can be used for a wide range of applications, contributing to promoting greater awareness of one's values and facilitating career choices, personnel selection, and people management aligned with a vision of sustainable organizational development.
