Edward Lawler: Vroom Enhanced with Two Types of Expectancy

Victor Vroom’s Expectancy Theory of motivation is, perhaps, my favorite model of how motivation works. And my video on it is one of the most-watched on this channel. But Edward Lawler expanded on it in a small, but important way. He gave us 'Vroom Enhanced' with two types of expectancy.

LESSON NOTES
============
A quick recap of Vroom’s model:
M = E x I x V
• Expectancy
• Instrumentality
• Valence
Lawler’s research suggested that this expectancy is really a combination of two:
The First Expectancy (E-P)
Perception of the probability that effort leads to performance. Clearly, this is linked most closely to self-confidence and knowledge of our own capabilities, along with our assessment of the task and how hard it is.
The Second Expectancy (P-O)
Perception of the probability that performance leads to outcomes. This expectancy is more about our belief in y=the extent to which we can control the outcomes, or how much they are a matter of chance.
So, we have:
M = E1 xE2 x I x V

Hi! thank you so much for the great explanation! I was wondering if you have a reference for Lawler's enhanced theory where I can take a more detailed look at it? Thanks!

[@ManagementCourses]

Hi - I learned about this from my copy of Management and Organisational Behaviour by Laurie Mullins (6th Edition) pp440-1. It's currently in its 13th Edition (geni.us/9os6vi) and the content does evolve from edition to edition. The reference it gives is Lawler's 1973 book, Motivation in Work Organizations, geni.us/faW5hb

[@khushboogoel9900]

Hii... Thank You so much for all the explanations, they are precise and easy to comprehend. Can you please help me differentiate between the Expectancy 2 and the instrumentality? How they are dfferent from each other.?

[@ManagementCourses]

@@khushboogoel9900 E2: is your belief (expectation) that your work leads to the outcomes your 'boss' wants to see. I: Instrumentality is the extent to which you believe that getting those outcomes will be instrumental (or causal) in your boss providing the promised reward.
