The purpose of this study was to examine positive and negative work outcomes in a group through the identification of personal work goals. Subjects were employees from various organizations in a metropolitan area. The semi-structured questionnaire used the Work Concerns Inventory to allow for free responses by the subjects. From the questionnaires goal statements were identified and defined as positive or negative. Content analysis was used to analyze the responses. Twenty-four positive and 19 negative goal categories were identified. Some goal categories were both positive and negative. The authors identified self-image goals as a new category that did not appear in previous research. Overall, the authors felt that this study supported previous research in this area.
