See p 377 for research details.

Equity Theory
The premise of Equity Theory:
Employees compare their individual inputs (efforts) with
outcomes (rewards) to significant/relevant others and then
makes a decision based on those results
Fatigue,
Can be eitherPay,
positive
or negative
security,
companionship,
trust, benefits, a
chance to use
talents or skills
boredom,
anxiety, harsh
supervision,
threat of
dismissal
Equity Theory
Theory appears to be culture bound
Equity theory states that when people are not
treated fairly, they will take steps to reduce the
inequity by doing less work, filing a grievance
In Asia and the Middle East, however,
employees often readily accept inequitable
treatment in order to preserve group harmony

Equity Theory
In Japan and Korea, men and women
receive different pay for doing the same
work, yet because of years of cultural
conditioning women may not feel they are
being treated inequitably

Cross-Cultural Job-Satisfaction
Studies
Studies in cross-cultural studies related to job
satisfaction have also been conducted in recent
years
Studies show Herzberg-type motivators tend to be of
more importance to job satisfaction than are hygiene
factors.
Research has shown that job content (factors
internally controlled) is more important than job
context (factors controlled by the organization). See
p 379

International Findings on
Achievement Motivation Theory
Early research (1960s) among Polish
industrialists found that many of them
were high achievers.
In later studies, researchers did not find a
high need for achievement in central
European countries
Hofstedes uncertainty avoidance and
masculinity-best describe high-achieving
societies (see Fig 12-5, p 381)
