Resumo: I investigate the impact of feeling financially constrained over the preference for defined tasks. I hypothesized that inducing these feelings would lead to a preference for well-defined job tasks to compensate for the perceived lack of personal control that these constraints generate. I tested this hypothesis in a lab experiment. Building upon prior literature, I found that even though feeling financially constrained induces a perceived lack of personal control, no effect over job preference was observed.
