Edna, a fashion photographer at a media company, feels demotivated at work because her colleague, Barry, a forensic photographer, gets paid more than her even though he has fewer responsibilities than her. Which of the following theories of motivation does this scenario best illustrate?

A) Expectancy theory
B) Equity theory
C) Alderfer's ERG Theory
D) McClelland's Learned Needs Theory

Respuesta :

Answer:   Option B                  

             

Explanation: The principle of equity is based on the assumption that people are motivated by equality, and if they find inequities in their own inputs or performance ratios and their predicate party, they may try to change their inputs to achieve their expected worth.

The simplest way for seeing the equity principle at the job, and probably the most obvious way it impacts workers, is by comparing the job they perform to somebody else who gets rewarded more than them.

Hence from the above we can conclude that the correct option is B.
