Abstract

A total of 252 male Melbourne workers of varying occupational ranks completed Dubin's central life interest (CLI) questionnaire. The results suggest that Australian respondents were far less committed to work than their American, Canadian, British, and Japanese counterparts. A large proportion of the Australian sample was characterized by dual commitment to both work and leisure. There was no variation in commitment on the basis of occupational rank in the Australian sample. Overall the results are consistent with the spillover rather than the compensatory model of the relationship between work and nonwork.
