The Cluster Analysis of Jobs Based on Data from the Position Analysis Questionnaire (PAQ).

Abstract

Two cluster analysis procedures were used in the clustering of jobs on the basis of data from the Position Analysis Questionnaire (PAQ). The PAQ is a structured job analysis procedure that provides for the analysis of jobs in terms of each of 187 job elements, these job elements being grouped into six divisions, as follows: (1) Information input; (2) mental processes; (3) work output; (4) relationships with other persons; (5) job context; (6) other job characteristics.
