• Person as machine– People’s behaviors & actions are
reflexive & involuntary, performed without conscious awareness
– Pushed by internal needs
– Pulled by environmental stimuli

Module 8.2: Motivational Theories – Classic Approaches
• Person-as-machine theories– Maslow’s need theory
• Internal mechanical theory• All humans have basic set of needs that
express themselves over life span of individual as internal “pushes” or drives
![Page 13: 1 Work in the 21 st Century Chapter 8 The Motivation to Work](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052603/56649d8c5503460f94a73b03/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Maslow’s Need Theory (5 Levels)
• Physiological needs– Basic needs like food & water
• Security needs– Need to produce a secure environment
• Love or social needs– Desire to be accepted by others
• Esteem needs– Being respected for accomplishments or capabilities
• Self-actualization– Desire to develop capabilities to fullest

Maslow’s Need Theory
• Employer needs to know at what need level individual worker is operating
• Group of workers may all be functioning at different need levels
• Fits person-as-machine metaphor
![Page 17: 1 Work in the 21 st Century Chapter 8 The Motivation to Work](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052603/56649d8c5503460f94a73b03/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
Variations on Maslow’s Theory
• Two-factor theory (Herzberg, 1966)– 2 basic needs, not 5– Needs are independent (not hierarchical)– 1) Hygiene needs
• Maslow’s physical & security needs
– 2) Motivator needs• Maslow’s social, esteem, & self-actualization needs
![Page 18: 1 Work in the 21 st Century Chapter 8 The Motivation to Work](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052603/56649d8c5503460f94a73b03/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
18
Variations on Maslow’s Theory (cont'd)
• ERG theory (Alderfer, 1972)– 3 basic needs, not 2 or 5
– Levels:• Existence (E)• Relatedness (R)• Growth (G)
– Has not garnered much support

Reinforcement Theory: An External Mechanical theory

stimulus, response, & reward
• Contingent reward– Reward depends on response
• Intermittent & continuous rewards– Intermittent rewards produce higher

Scientist Models (cont'd)
• Dissonance theory– Suggests that tension exists when
individuals hold incompatible thoughts
– Assumes that individuals always seek some sense of “balance” & will direct their behavior toward seeking & maintaining that balance
![Page 22: 1 Work in the 21 st Century Chapter 8 The Motivation to Work](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052603/56649d8c5503460f94a73b03/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Goal-Setting Theory (cont'd)
• Feedback loop important between knowledge of results & intermediate stages
• Control theory– Based on principle of feedback loop– Assumes individuals compare a standard to an
actual outcome & adjust their behavior to bring outcome into agreement with a standard

Action Theory (Rubicon theory)
• Broad consideration of role of intention in motivated behavior & connection between intention & action
• Action phases in active goal pursuit– Predecisional– Postdecisional– Actional– Evaluative
![Page 31: 1 Work in the 21 st Century Chapter 8 The Motivation to Work](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052603/56649d8c5503460f94a73b03/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31
Action Theory (cont'd)

– Action structure

![Page 32: 1 Work in the 21 st Century Chapter 8 The Motivation to Work](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052603/56649d8c5503460f94a73b03/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32
Common Themes inModern Approaches to Motivation
• Intention plays key role in motivated behavior
• Concept of feedback critical in considering anything but the simplest act at one point in time
• Theory should include element of person-as-scientist
• Theory should include concept of self-assessment
• Some non-cognitive element in the “ultimate” motivation theory
![Page 33: 1 Work in the 21 st Century Chapter 8 The Motivation to Work](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052603/56649d8c5503460f94a73b03/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Module 8.4:Practical Issues in Motivation
• Motivation can be measured
• Motivational trait questionnaire (MTQ)– Measures 6 aspects of “general” motivation
• Desire to learn• Mastery• Other referenced goals
• Competitiveness• Worry• Emotionality
![Page 34: 1 Work in the 21 st Century Chapter 8 The Motivation to Work](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052603/56649d8c5503460f94a73b03/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

Cross-Cultural Issues in Motivation
• Hofstede’s cultural theory– Cultures differ on 5 dimensions

Generational Differences & Work Motivation
• Generation– Defined by group
members who share birth years & significant life events
– e.g., Baby Boomers, Generation Xers, Generation Yers

![Page 38: 1 Work in the 21 st Century Chapter 8 The Motivation to Work](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052603/56649d8c5503460f94a73b03/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
38
Generational Differences (cont'd)
• Generation Xers vs. Baby Boomers -- Initial Research indicates that:– Younger employees appear to be more “me”
oriented– Today’s workers value “pride in work” less
than workers of 1974– Work is less important now than 25 years ago– Work becomes less idealized as workers age
![Page 39: 1 Work in the 21 st Century Chapter 8 The Motivation to Work](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052603/56649d8c5503460f94a73b03/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

Motivational Interventions
• Contingent rewards• Job Enrichment (Tied to 5 job characteristics)
• Skill variety• Task identity• Task significance• Autonomy• Task feedback
![Page 40: 1 Work in the 21 st Century Chapter 8 The Motivation to Work](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052603/56649d8c5503460f94a73b03/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
40
Motivational Interventions (cont'd)
• Productivity Measurement & Enhancement System (ProMES)– Utilizes goal setting, rewards, &
feedback to increase motivation & performance
– Evidence shows significant gains in productivity following use of ProMES
![Page 41: 1 Work in the 21 st Century Chapter 8 The Motivation to Work](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052603/56649d8c5503460f94a73b03/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
41
ProMES Steps for Implementation
1) Forming a design team
2) Identifying objectives
3) Identifying indicators
4) Defining contingencies
5) Designing the feedback system
6) Giving & responding to feedback
7) Monitoring the system
