What is Victor Vroom's Expectancy Theory? Process of Model of Motivation

[@ManagementCourses]

I have always found Expectancy Theory the single most valuable insight into how motivation works. So, I am pleased to see that this is one of my more popular motivation videos!

My mother used the Flip Flop Expectancy Theory. I could expect a flip flop when my motivation to clean the car was low.

[@ManagementCourses]

Not sure whether to like this or not - as I can't be sure whether it's a joke or not. The reality of physical coercion is that it is just abuse and has n place in work or family life. Compliance is not motivation.

I am a humble and an aspiring manager, oftentimes stumbling to motivate people in my team...this formula seems to clear many of my doubts Thanks a lot Sir, let me try something out of it. Nevertheless always something troubles me is how much organisation would support me. I equate many times Motivation to employee is cost to the company and my leadership doesn't like anything spoken about money I have to balance something.

[@ManagementCourses]

Hi - there are many videos in this series about motivation. Watch some more and you'll learn that 1. there are many other motivators, besides money, and 2. Money isn't a particularly good motivator in many circumstances. The full playlist is here: kzbin.info/aero/PL6vWkk9L7LeE7ly5r-rFBoi0gt1o3yKhH

[@pavsahans3637]

Thank you for posting this video. I have found it really interesting as it has helped me to understand the Expectancy Theory mathematical equation in simple terms IE, low expectancy multiplied by low belief in the performance will lead to desired rewards, multiplied by the low value employees place on the existing reward system, this would equal a low motivational force and therefore low employee satisfaction. I will be using this to help with the critical analysis of my next MBA assignment. Thanks!

[@Sadiq-AbdouelKahal]

Thank you for these videos. they helped me grasp a bit the reasoning of some motivation theories. If they are ALL the best motivation theories, which one is actually worth it? or should you as a manager apply different approaches to different situations/ employees?

[@ManagementCourses]

If they are all the best, you should apply them all. Firstly, many theories address different aspects of motivation - most notably some focus on the process (like Vroom) while others focus on the 'what' that motivates us. Secondly, we are talking about people here. I doubt a single theory could account for everything. That said, Kurt Lewin got close with his B = f(P, E) (that is, behavior is a function of the person and the environment. But, while it's undoubtedly true, it leaves out rather a lot of detail!

[@Sadiq-AbdouelKahal]

@@ManagementCourses thank you for your response. Indeed, we are talking about people, so no rational theory would have the desired job performance. Combining many, while being aware of the cultures and the situations/ context would probably be best.

[@ajmarr5671]

The difference between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation comes down to one question. (and an expectancy theory is the answer, but a bit different from Vroom) What is an incentive or reinforcer? For a Skinnerian behaviorist, a reinforcer is any event virtual or real that changes any attribute of behavior, from rate to intensity to form. For a biological behaviorist, a reinforcer is a positive change in a specific neurologic state that is embodied by an affective tone or feeling. For the Skinnerian, all reinforcement is extrinsic, and is justified procedurally. For the biological behaviorist, all reinforcement is intrinsic, and is justified realistically, or through a thorough understanding of how the brain works. Either perspective denies separate categorical entities of extrinsic and intrinsic reward. Ultimately however, a sound neurologically grounded explanation of incentive motivation resolves the distinction, which given our current knowledge, is no distinction at all. The concept of a unified reinforcement theory was proposed by the bio-behaviorists John Donahoe and David Palmer in 1994, and was independently confirmed by the affective neuroscientist Kent Berridge (who added the affective nature of reinforcement) in the same and following decades. Donahoe and Palmer proposed a neurologically grounded definition of reinforcement. Reinforcement reflected a discrepancy principle, when behavior is continually mediated by the activity of dopamine neurons elicited by continuous correction error between predictions and outcomes. Dopamine scales with the importance of the reinforcer, and is responsible for a feeling of energy and arousal, but not pleasure. The reinforcement principle from a Skinnerian behaviorism is still the guiding principle of present-day behaviorists or behavior analysts, but discrepancy principles are now core to single process incentive motivation theories in radical behaviorism as reflected by modern affective neuroscience. The difference between these two principles is stark in both principle and practice. Whereas a Skinnerian behaviorist is concerned about the effectiveness of reinforcers, a biological or radical behaviorist Is concerned about how reinforcement induces affect. To a teacher, parent, society, or politic, the effectiveness of reinforcement is paramount. However, for an individual, affect in reinforcement is of first importance. The latter is reflected in the recent work of Berridge, who emphasized that behavior change must be oriented to eliciting continuous positive affect, which is epitomized by an active and meaningful life. Given this perspective where individual feelings are critical for motivation and positive affect or ‘happiness’, the metric for success for behaviorists is not behavioral control, but individual freedom, and a behaviorally engineered society that focuses on constructing the avenues that enrich the meaning or value of life, or an individual’s fully realized self-control in a free society.

[@partheshnarkhede5968]

Great Explanation Sir !! One doubt the valence here does not hold a positive or negative sign as in Lewin Theory ? I mean in what terms does Lewin's theory differ from this ( apart from fact that behavior as function of environment is not considered in Vroom's theory )

[@ManagementCourses]

Thank you, Parthesh. I've never seen Vroom's work discussed with negative valence, as it is about. positive motivation. But I do expect that the model will hold with a 'motivator' that actually repels someone. If you ask me to do something and offer a reward I actually find distasteful, I will be motivated to resist. For example, you may offer me a trip abroad with a flight. But if I am highly aware of climate change and keen to avoid adding to carbon emissions, what you may reasonably have expected would have a positive valence could actually have a negative one. Interesting thought - thank you.. I don't know, but I do expect that Vroom was building on Lewin's ideas. Many 20th century psychology theorists were!
