Lacy, William B.; Bokemeier, Janet L.; and Shepard, Jon M., "Job Attribute Preferences and Work Commitment of Men and Women in the United States," Personnel Psychology, 36 (Summer, 1983), 315-329.

Abstract:

Sex of respondent has little effect on preferred job attributes, with both sexes ranking meaningfulness of work as most important. Education, occupational prestige, age, and commitment to work explain more of the variation in preferred job attributes than does sex, and these factors have the same relative predictive value for males and females.
