Choose the correct option from the following :
Show Hint
- Statement-I is true and Statement-II is false.
- Statement-II is true and Statement-I is false.
- Both the Statements are true.
- Both the Statements are false.
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Both statements accurately describe motivation:
Statement I Analysis:
1. Positive Motivation: - Rewards, recognition, incentives - Example: Employee of the month awards
2. Negative Motivation: - Punishments, threats, penalties - Example: Sales quota non-attainment warnings
Statement II Analysis:
1. Complexity Factors: - Varying needs (Maslow's hierarchy) - Different cultural backgrounds - Personality differences (introverts vs extroverts)
2. Management Implications: - Requires customized approaches - No one-size-fits-all solution
Interrelation: - The complexity (II) explains why both positive/negative (I) approaches exist - Both are well-established in organizational behavior theories
Final Answer: (C) Both the Statements are true.
