Work Complexity:

"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)."
