N2  - Compared with Euro-Americans, Mexican Americans, as a group, are younger, less well-educated, less often represented in higher status occupations, and earn less. Because these characteristics are known to negatively correlate with many work attitudes, it was predicted that Mexican American and Euro-American work attitudes would be different. Data from 21 surveys representative of the United States work force were used to compare the work attitudes of Mexican Americans (n = 405) and Euro-Americans (n = 10,312). In contrast to the prediction, the results combine with those of earlier studies to portray Mexican American employees as productive, cooperative, and networking, with a strong sense of work ethic and job satisfaction.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
