"Factor loadings on the work complexity dimension indicate which
particular
mental processes and structural features of work contribute to a
job's overall complexity. Starting with cognitive-processing tasks, loadings
on the complexity dimension (essentially, their g loading) reflect the distinction between productive and reproductive thinking: higher for the
importance of compiling (0.90), combining (0.88), and analyzing (0.83)
information and lower or the importance of coding (0.68), transcribing (0.51), remembering (0.40), and recognizing (0.36) it. Factor loadings of
structural features reflected the importance of independent judgment and
the ability to juggle more numerous and varied activities: importance of
self-direction (0.88), lack of structure (0.77), lack of supervision (0.73),
variety and change (0.41), and negatively with repetitive activities (-0.49;
Gottfredson, 1997b)."
