The findings are that respondents’ work values do not moderate any of the
relationships in Model 2. For model 5b, non-moderation is indicated, but with
significant model χ^2 p values (albeit with adequate CFI [> 0.96] and RMSEA [<
0.06] estimates) these findings are not conclusive.
7.15.4 Summary of multi-group moderator analyses
Table 7 - 42 summarises the findings from the moderator analyses. Only one
grouping variable showed any indication of producing a moderating effect on the
structural relationships in Models 2 and 5b, however, owing to unsatisfactory
model fit for those analyses, these findings cannot be regarded as conclusive.
Conclusive findings are indicated by ‘strong reliability of findings’ in Table 7 - 42.
For Model 5b only one grouping variable demonstrated such a finding, specifically,
age was found not to moderate any structural relationships. Several more such
conclusive findings were achieved for Model 2 where age, full-/part-time,
respondent origin, length of service, supervisor contact or employee work values
were all found not to exert a moderating effect on the structural relations in Model
2.
