Part 3 Process Perspectives of Motivation § Equity Theory § Expectancy Theory § Goal-Setting Theory
Process Perspectives on Motivation Process Perspectives l Focus on why people choose certain behavioral options to satisfy their needs and how they evaluate their satisfaction after they have attained their goals. Process Perspectives of Motivation l l l Equity Theory Expectancy Theory Goal-Setting Theory
Process Perspectives on Motivation 1. Equity Theory l l l People are motivated to seek social equity in the rewards they receive for performance. Equity is an individual’s belief that the treatment he or she receives is fair relative to the treatment received by others. Individuals view the value of rewards (outcomes) and inputs of effort as ratios and make subjective comparisons of themselves to other people. outcomes (self) inputs (self) = outcomes (other) inputs (other)
1. Equity Theory A. An Equitable Situation Self $2 1 hour = $2 per hour Other $4 2 hours = $2 per hour
1. Equity Theory B. Negative Inequity Self $2 1 hour = $2 per hour Other $3 1 hour = $3 per hour
1. Equity Theory C. Positive Inequity Other Self $3 1 hour = $3 per hour $2 1 hour = $2 per hour

1. Equity Theory p Equity Theory (cont’d) Conditions of and reactions to equity comparisons: § Feeling equitably rewarded. § § Maintain performance and accept comparison as fair estimate. Feeling under-rewarded - try to reduce inequity. § § § Change inputs by trying harder or slacking off. Change outcomes by demanding a raise. Distort the ratios by altering perceptions of self or of others. Leave situation by quitting the job. Change comparisons by choosing another object person.
2. Expectancy Theory p Motivation depends on how much we want something and how likely we are to get it. p Assumes that: § Behavior is determined by a combination of personal § § § and environmental forces. People make decisions about their own behavior in organizations. Different people have different types of needs, desires, and goals. People choose among alternatives of behaviors in selecting one that leads to a desired outcome.

Elements of Expectancy Theory § Effort-to-Performance Expectancy § The individual’s perception of the probability that effort will lead to a high level of performance. § Performance-to-Outcome Expectancy § The individual’s perception of the probability that performance will lead to a specific outcome, or consequence or reward in an organizational setting.
2. Expectancy Theory p. Major Elements of Expectancy Theory E -> P expectancy Valence Probability that effort will lead to desired performance (value of outcomes) Effort Performance Outcomes (pay, recognition, etc) P -> O expectancy Probability that performance will produce desired outcome
3. Goal-Setting Theory Assumptions : l Behavior is a result of conscious goals and intentions. l Setting goals influences the behavior of people in organizations.
3. Goal-Setting Theory Characteristics of Goals § Goal difficulty l l l § Goal specificity l l § Clarity and precision of the goal. Goals vary in their ability to be stated specifically. Acceptance l § Extent to which a goal is challenging and requires effort. People work harder to achieve more difficult goals. Goals should be difficult but attainable. The extent to which persons accept a goal as their own. Commitment l The extent to which an individual is personally interested in reaching a goal.
