An integrating model of motivated work behaviour

Martin Walbank

Omega, 1979, vol. 7, issue 4, 297-308

Abstract: A model of the processes of work motivation is presented which integrates concepts of trait, reinforcement and valency-expectancy theories. The response is determined by a three level structure; a continuing evaluation process, a set of learned constructs and a set of highly stable personality dimensions. The motivated response, in working situations, is considered as a series of discrete behaviour choices; the dynamics of the behavioural response can be established from the information processing and learning processes within a feedback connected model.
