Question

________ research focused on how some people are motivated by internal aspirations and life goals, whereas others are primarily motivated by the job conditions.

Answer 1

Frederick Herzberg's research focused on how some people are motivated by internal aspirations and life goals, whereas others are primarily motivated by the job conditions.

Explanation:

Frederick Irving Herzberg was a famous psychologist who lived in America. He was known for his motivator-hygiene theory. He states that people are generally influenced by two sets of factors.

According to Frederick, hygiene factors don’t contribute to motivation, but absence of hygiene may cause lowering the motivation level.

Frederick says that there are many factors in the workplace which induces motivation for the employee. Certain factors contribute job satisfaction, while other set of factors may cause dissatisfaction.
