Interdisciplinary examination of the costs and benefits of enlarged jobs: A job design quasi-experiment.

Costs and benefits of job enlargement were examined in an interdisciplinary framework (Campion, 1988,1989; Campion Herzberg, 1966). These models focus on such job attributes as variety, autonomy, and task significance. Evaluations of these interventions are usually concerned only with beneficial outcomes of such models (e.g., job satisfaction).
