This study investigates the indirect relationship between job autonomy and creativity through creative self-efficacy and intrinsic motivation, and is based on the motivational theory of creativity. It suggests that intrinsic motivation and creative self-efficacy positively influence creativity. Additionally, prosocial motivation’s mixed moderating role is tested in this study. The results demonstrate that job autonomy directly promotes intrinsic motivation and creative self-efficacy and indirectly influences employee creativity through intrinsic motivation and creative self-efficacy, based on survey data from 323 employees in the information technology industry. In decreasing order, creative self-efficacy, intrinsic motivation, and prosocial motivation-the three main motivations-all have a favorable impact on creativity. Furthermore, the impact of creative self-efficacy on creativity is reinforced by prosocial drive. Prosocial drive, however, has no moderating effect on the connection between intrinsic motivation and employee creativity.

With the strategic expansion of vocational education in China, enhancing student motivation is imperative yet challenging. This mixed methods study investigates how vocational college administrators’ leadership styles correlate to student motivation. Surveying 370 students across 7 colleges in Shandong Province revealed moderate transformational leadership positively predicted intrinsic motivation and negatively predicted amotivation, while showing negligible association with controlled extrinsic motivations. Interviews with 15 students and 7 administrators offered qualitative insights into leadership’s motivational impact. Although moderately transformational overall, administrators lacking strategic vision and overemphasizing skills dampened engagement. Students desired more inspiration, participation, and individualized support. Findings suggest extending transformational leadership development in vocational colleges to foster internalized motivation. This study provides empirical evidence and guidance to enhance leadership strategies for motivating China’s emerging generation of vocationally-trained talent.

Motivation is crucial for second language (SL) learners. Motivation is an important factor in second foreign language learning. It alludes to a psychological propensity for learning foreign languages. The motivation of second language learners is examined in this work by categorizing motivation, outlining the motivational variables in L2 learning, and concentrating on the various motivational types. This paper divided second language motivation (SLM) into four parts: Internal and external motivation; Integrative and instrumental motivation; General motivation and specific motivation and other motivations. Finally, the paper draws on some recent ideas about the nature of the concept.

The study aims to recognize the motivations to engage in judo depending on gender, age and level of sports experience among nonelite judokas from the Greater Poland region because previous studies mostly concerned the motivations of top athletes. We supposed that there was a relationship between age, gender, level of sports experience and motivations in judo. During the diagnostic survey, judokas completed the Polish version of the Sport Motivation Scale. In order to determine the motivational profiles of judokas, cluster analysis was performed using the k-means method. The highest values were obtained for motivations related to the intrinsic motivation to experience stimulation and the intrinsic motivation to accomplish, while the lowest values were obtained for motivations related to amotivation and external regulation. The research results showed a relationship between experience in judo training and the motivations of judokas; however, the motivations of the judokas were not differentiated based on their gender or age. In our study, the intrinsic motivation to experience stimulation turned out to be more important for judokas participating in competitions, while recreational athletes more often indicated experiencing amotivation. The intrinsic motivation to accomplish and intrinsic motivation to know turned out to be more important for athletes in training for more than 10 years, while amotivation was more often indicated to be experienced by judokas practicing judo for less than 10 years. Respondents who reported high internal motivation values and had a motivational structure they shaped themselves had been training for longer—for more than 10 years. In our study, the three motivational groups of judokas were identified, and we found that judo experience differentiated belonging to groups. It is recommended to check other martial arts and check more variables in the future, e.g., marital status, which is a potentially important factor in the field of sport motivation.

AbstractUncovering the motivations towards a profession may contribute to a better understanding of how the profession is chosen and will be pursued. However, the research on the attractiveness of the music teaching profession is rather limited and predominantly focused on identity development, thereby overlooking other aspects that may play a role. In pursuing a case study, my aim is to contribute to this field of research by investigating the views of pre-service music teachers enrolled at the University of Karlstad in Sweden. The results depict a unique motivational profile compared to their counterparts in other subjects. These differential aspects are threefold, indicating a high prevalence of ‘extrinsic motivations’ driving their choice of profession, that ‘altruistic reasons’ have lower significance as a motivating factor, and that there is a poor perceived relevance of these individuals’ future profession. In addition, this study provides evidence of the prevalence of ‘musician identities’ over ‘teaching identities’ and foresees the dependence between the participants’ motivation and their future students’ progression. Moreover, I hypothesise that career changes and Pygmalion effects are to be expected if intrinsic motivation towards the profession is not fostered or if this population’s motivation is linked to the progress of their students rather than the challenge of motivating them in the first place.

Purpose – The rapid development of Web 2.0 and social media enables the rise of crowdsourcing. Crowdsourcing contest is a typical case of crowdsourcing and has been adopted by many organisations for business solution and decision making. From a participant's perspective, it is interesting to explore what motivates people to participate in crowdsourcing contest. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the category of motivation based on self-determination theory and synthesises various motivation factors in crowdsourcing contest. Meanwhile, perceived motivational affordances and task granularity are also examined as the moderate constructs. Design/methodology/approach – The paper builds a conceptual model to illustrate the relationships between various motivations (extrinsic and intrinsic) and participation effort under the moderating of perceived motivational affordances and task granularity. An empirical study is conducted to test the research model by surveying the Chinese participants of crowdsourcing contest. Findings – The results show that various motivations might play different roles in relating to participation effort expended in the crowdsourcing contest. Moreover, task granularity may positively moderate the relationship between external motivation and participation effort. The results also show that supporting of a participant's perceived motivational affordances might strengthen the relationship between the individual's motivation with an internal focus (intrinsic, integrated, identified and introjected motivation) and participation effort. Originality/value – Overall, the research has some conceptual and theoretical implications to the literature. This study synthesises various motivation factors identified by previous studies in crowdsourcing projects or communities as a form of motivation spectrum, namely external, introjected, identified, integrated and intrinsic motivation, which contributes to the motivation literatures. Meanwhile, the findings indicate that various motivations might play different roles in relating to participation effort expended in the crowdsourcing contest. Also, the study theoretically extends the crowdsourcing participation research to incorporate the effects of perceived motivational affordances in crowdsourcing contest. In addition, the study may yield some practical implications for sponsors, managers and designers in crowdsourcing contest.

Abstract People join a customer-driven organization with motivations that may not be static over time, an important issue for long-term organizational viability. In this study, we examined motivations among members of ShareCare, the first Village for older adults in the U.S. Using qualitative data from a random sample of 91 members, we compared motivations for becoming a member and for continuing membership. Motivations to join and continue membership are not necessarily the same. Motivations were categorized as: instrumental, social, and altruistic motivation. We categorized length of membership as short-term: 8-years or less (51.63%) and long-term: 9-years and more (49.37%). While 36% of members joined only for instrumental motivation, 59% continued membership only for instrumental motivation. While about 52% joined with multiple motivations, only 35% of members mentioned multiple motivations when continuing their membership. Finally, 18% of short-term members mentioned altruistic motivation when continuing their membership, while 28% of long-term members mentioned altruistic motivation when continuing their membership. While people’s motivation might change over time, altruistic motivation may be the greatest motivating factor for long-term memberships. Long-term members may identify themselves as supporters rather than users of the organization and cultivate stronger connections with other members over time. Our findings inform how to recruit and retain members in Villages, and customer-driven organizations for older adults more broadly.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Research on language learning motivations has been extensive. However, research on learners’ motivations for learning Chinese has been underexplored compared to that for learning English. The current study aimed to investigate the motivations among 256 Turkish learners of Chinese as foreign language (CFL) who studied at five universities in Turkey. Participants completed an adapted questionnaire based on Gardner’s Attitude/Motivation Test Battery (AMTB). A series of statistical analysis revealed three major findings. First, integrativeness, attitudes towards learning situation and attitudes towards learning Chinese were identified as the three most important motivational variables, followed by instrumentality, and parental encouragement. Language anxiety and passive motivation seemed to play a weaker role in Turkish CFL learners’ motivations for learning Chinese at the tertiary level. Second, the results also show that females exhibited higher motivation to learn the target language compared to their male peers. Third, the choice of major among CFL learners appeared to influence their language learning motivations, with a notable distinction between Chinese majors and non-Chinese majors in five motivational variables: integrativeness attitudes towards the learning situation, language anxiety, parental encouragement, and passive motivation.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
English language proficiency is crucial in today’s globalized world, prompting Taiwanese universities to mandate one to four years of English courses. With the implementation of a national bilingual education program for college students, universities aim to enhance English proficiency through Freshman English courses, facilitating a smooth transition to English-mediated instruction in subsequent years, particularly in specialized subjects. Despite the official emphasis on English’s importance for future success, the effectiveness of language instruction hinges on understanding students’ motivations. This study investigates English learning motivations among Taiwanese undergraduates, utilizing a Likert-scale questionnaire to discern general trends. The sample comprises 360 undergraduates from a northern Taiwanese university, with factor analysis revealing five motivational factors: intrinsic appreciation, instrumental motivation, external expectations motivation, exam-driven motivation, and interpersonal influence. These findings offer valuable insights into the multifaceted nature of English language learning motivations among Taiwanese freshmen, contributing to existing literature by highlighting nuanced motivational factors. The identified motivational factors hold implications for both theoretical understanding and pedagogical approaches, providing educators with insights to tailor instruction to students’ diverse motivations. This study aims to enrich the discourse on language learning motivation and serve as a foundation for future research in similar contexts.

The aim of this research was to explore the application of motivational teaching practices used by instructors and their impact on the students’ motivation. The researcher applied case study that conducted in English Intensive Program of UIN Alauddin Makassar namely Pengembangan Intesifikasi Bahasa Asing (PIBA) in academic year 2017/2018. The data sources were 2 instructors and 72 first semester students that taken through purposive sampling. The first instructor taught Guidance and Counseling C Department students that consisted of 30 students and the second instructor taught Nursing A Department students that consisted of 32 students. In collecting data, the motivational teaching Practices by instructor was taken through interview and observation. While, the impact of the application of motivational teaching practices on the students’ motivation was taken through questionnaire. In brief, it could be concluded that there were two kinds instructors’ perception about motivational teaching practices, they were Strongly Motivating Instructor (SMI) and Weakly Motivating Instructor (WMI). Besides, there were two kinds of instructors’ motivation teaching practices implementation, they were Highly Implemented Motivational Teaching Practices (HIMTP) and Lowly Implemented Motivational Teaching Practices (LIMTP). Thus, the impact on the students’ motivation was also different. The Strongly motivating instructor who implemented motivational teaching practices highly had more self-confidence students in learning English. While, the weakly motivating instructor who implemented motivational teaching practices lowly had less self-confidence students in learning English. Even though it could not be denied that all of the students from both classes still had high anxiety and low intrinsic motivation. Therefore, it was suggested for the Instructor to applied personal approach to decrease the anxiety of the students and to increase their satisfying in learning English.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
AbstractAs part of a larger longitudinal study, this paper examines the development of Chinese students' EFL learning motivation throughout university undergraduate study, in an increasingly globalized local context. The study adopted a social constructivist perspective of language learning and combined research methods; the participants were over 1,000 undergraduates from 5 universities. The quantitative data were collected through a questionnaire (based on Gao et al. 2004) including motivational intensity and motivation types – instrumental, cultural, and situational, implemented annually from university entrance to graduation. The qualitative data consisted of individual and group interviews, student journals, and observations. Integrated data analysis revealed that sustained high-level long-term instrumental motivations coexisted with an increase of L2- oriented cultural motivations and situational motivation, particularly in the first and fourth year. The increased L2-oriented cultural motivations indicated neither ``ntegrativeness'' in the sense of becoming a member of the native English speaker community, nor a culturally neutral ``global identity.'' The increase of such L2- oriented cultural motivations was also accompanied by a sustained ``social responsibility'' motivation oriented to learners' home culture. Such complexities of motivational development call for further investigation in increasingly globalized EFL contexts.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Studies around the world show that students’ motivation for learning English as a foreign language is usually interconnected with teachers’ motivation. To explore this relationship, this study investigated five Bangladeshi EFL teachers’ early language learning experiences, their visions of possible L2 selves, their motivations for becoming English teachers and the way they connect their visions with their classroom teaching for motivating students. This study employed L2 Motivational Self System (Dorney, 2005, 2009) as the theoretical framework. It was situated in the constructivist paradigm using a qualitative approach taking the form of a narrative enquiry. Data was collected from teachers’ language biographies and in-depth interviews. The thematic analysis of data revealed teachers’ considerable academic and socio-cultural challenges, their improved motivational states and visions of either ‘Ideal L2 Self’ or ‘L2 Learning Experiences’. Teachers with ‘Ideal L2 Selves’ were found more aware of generating students’ L2 vision. The study also found a considerable influence of social, economic, psychological, infrastructural, and cultural factors on teachers’ professional motivation and commitment. Therefore, the study has brought implications for addressing these factors at an institutional and political level to bring about attitudinal change towards teaching as a profession in Bangladesh.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
According to the Self-Determination Theory, perceived job pressures can coerce professionals to develop more controlled motivations towards their work, and consequently increase the probability of using controlling motivational strategies. This study sought to analyze work-related motivations as mediators between two types of perceived job pressures: organizational constraints and perceptions of clients’ controlled motivation and the use of controlling motivational strategies by exercise professionals. Using a cross-sectional design, involving 366 exercise professionals (172 women), mediation paths were assessed following Preacher and Hayes statistical procedures. Models were adjusted for gender, work experience (years), and the internal tendency to feel events as pressuring. Organizational constraints were associated with lower autonomous motivation for work and the use of controlling strategies. Perceptions of clients’ controlled motivation were associated with work-related amotivation and the use of controlling strategies. Amotivation mediated the association between organizational constraints and controlling strategies. Overall, results support theoretical predictions and previous research, extending it to the exercise domain, highlighting the interplay between job pressures, work-related motivations, and the use of controlling strategies. The understanding of what influences exercise professionals’ motivation, and consequently the motivational strategies they use, is of paramount importance for exercise promotion and the benefit of those who seek their expert guidance.

Pre-service teacher program has been a big issue in educational development and research worldwide. A dichotomy of their motivation under intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation is widely accepted but the motivational orientations under altruistic, intrinsic and extrinsic motivation are also identified. This study was meant to identify what motivational orientations the Indonesian preservice language teachers had and whether their motivations changed while taking the training program. The criteria on reliability of internal consistency of the items were relatively high with their Cronbach’s Alpha .85. The results show that the participants had the three classifications of motivation of pre-service teachers and the results also revealed that the three sub-scales were significantly correlated. The empirical data in this study supported that the category of motivation of pre-service students under altruistic, intrinsic and extrinsic motivation and the data also revealed that the participants became more motivated to be teachers after entering to the teacher training program. The data also suggests that the three types of motivation (altruistic, extrinsic and intrinsic orientation) are not antagonistic. The data also implies that motivational orientations in general are identified under the continuum of the extrinsic- intrinsic motivation and other categories, if any, may be grouped under the continuum.

The widespread use of the internet has led to a new activity involving individuals in spreading goodness through voluntary social engagement. This activity is known as online volunteering. The flexible nature of online volunteering has increased interest and enthusiasm, particularly among emerging adults, motivating them to participate in such activities. However, research on this phenomenon, especially among emerging adults, is still limited. This study aims to explore the various forms of motivation among emerging adults to participate in online volunteering. A total of 205 emerging adult participants who have previously or are currently engaged in online volunteering activities are recruited to complete the Volunteer Functions Inventory adaptation scale. Descriptive analysis indicates that out of the six proposed motivation forms, Motivations related to understanding, values, and enhancement play a crucial role in motivating emerging adults to engage in online volunteering. These three motivational factors serve as the primary incentives for emerging adults to develop themselves and achieve their goals. Additionally, the study finds that emerging adults who engage in online volunteering activities for 6 months to 1 year and those who participate in environmental online volunteering exhibit higher motivation compared to those engaged in volunteering for longer durations and in other volunteer fields. Overall, this research identifies a high level of motivation among emerging adults participating in online volunteering activities, categorizing it as a significant driving factor.

<p><em>Learning English as a foreign language is considered as a long-term process. During the period of learning, students might undergo ‘ups’ and ‘downs’ issue related to motivation swings. It is believed that motivated learners likely to outperform others who have high language aptitude but possess low motivation. For this reason, EFL teachers are required to involve strategies that captivate EFL students’ motivation. Motivating students should not only rely on immediate teaching strategies or a single activity since learning English as a foreign language is not an immediate process. Students tend to show fluctuated motivation in a time while in the other occasions could suffer in learning. </em><em>Hence, how motivation is considered as a process rather than a single state is described. Examining other perspective about motivation and the changing of focus in researching motivation show that seeing motivation as a process indicates more promising results for EFL students’ learning accomplishment. </em><em>Pointing out the importance of motivation in English learning attainment and the need of continuum process in motivating students, this paper offers the practical and comprehensive classroom motivational strategies by applying </em><em>Dörnyei’s motivational taxonomy</em><em>. </em></p>

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The motivation of the word is its specific sign; it is the structural-semantic capacity that allows us to be aware of the interconditioning of the sound form and its meaning by comparing it with other lexical units of the language. The types of motivation of the word meaning are: the lexical motivation which is the result of the expression by the word of the motivational index of the designated object and the structural motivation which is the expression by the word of the classification index of the designated object. Lexical and structural motivations are realized by the internal form of the word (IFW). The IFW components are on the “horizontal” motivational form and the motivational meaning, and on the vertical - the motivational part and the forming part. With reference to words we can speak of lexical meaning and motivational meaning; in SPU (stable polilexical units), however, we identify phraseological meaning, motivational meaning, and lexical meaning. The motivational form of the word (MF) is the segment (or segments of its sound form), determined in terms of its motivation. The motivational meaning of the word is the meaning (or a synthesis of the meanings) of the motivational form. There are different types of relations between the motivational meaning and the lexical meaning of the word: the overlapping relationship; inclusion relationships; intersection relations; and inadvertent relationships. There are various types of motivational indices. The following types of IFW are determined: a) live - when the motivation can be identified by the speaker; b) dead, here the word has lost its motivation in the speaker's perception; c) lexicalized and non-lexicalized; d) metaphorical and non-metaphorical. Examples of the types of motivation mentioned are presented in this article.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Food safety training has been the primary avenue for ensuring food workers are performing proper food handling practices and thus, serving safe food. Yet, knowledge of safe food handling practices does not necessarily result in actual performance of these practices. This research identified participating food service employees' level of agreement with four factors of motivation (internal motivations, communication, reward-punishment, and resources) and determined if respondents with different demographic characteristics reported different motivating factors. Data were collected from 311 food service employees who did not have any supervisory responsibilities. Intrinsic motivation agreement scores were consistently the highest of all four motivational factors evaluated and did not differ across any of the demographic characteristics considered. In contrast, motivation agreement scores for communication, reward-punishment, and resources did differ based on respondents' gender, age, place of employment, job status, food service experience, completion of food handler course, or possession of a food safety certification. In general, respondents agreed that these motivation factors influenced their likelihood to perform various safe food handling procedures. This research begins to illustrate how employees' demographic characteristics influence their responses to various motivators, helping to clarify the complex situation of ensuring safe food in retail establishments. Future research into why employee willingness to perform varies more for extrinsic motivation than for intrinsic motivation could assist food service managers in structuring employee development programs and the work environment, in a manner that aids in improving external motivation (communication, reward-punishment, and resources) and capitalizing on internal motivation.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Lately, younger people have not involved themselves in farming activities, nor have they continued their parents’ jobs as farmers. Nevertheless, agriculture continues to play a pivotal role in Indonesian food production. Some studies reveal that fewer young people have been engaging in farming because aging farmers are unwilling to bequeath farms to younger farmers for educational, financial, and motivational reasons. Thus, this study sought to describe and analyze the motivating factors why farmers continue farming in Margokaton village, Sleman district, Yogyakarta province. The study gathered primary information from 82 farmers using a structured questionnaire. It used Alderfer’s existence-relatedness-growth (ERG) theory to assess farmer motivations. It found that, overall, rice farmers’ motivation, as seen from the motivation of ERG needs, was “moderate.” Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient analysis shows farmers’ motivation correlating with their education, side jobs, perception of farming as an occupation, farmland areas, productivity of paddy fields, household income from crops farming, farming experience, maintenance of the farmland, having daughters only, and parental encouragement toward farming. Understanding the factors that correlate with farmers’ motivation to continue farming can help assess the future of rice farming.

This study investigates the impact of motivational factors on the reading test performance of Chinese learners in the IELTS examination. The objectives are to evaluate the motivation levels, analyze the relationship between motivation and IELTS reading achievement, and identify the most influential predictors among intrinsic and extrinsic motivations. Using a quantitative research design and a sample of 242 students from 12 IELTS training centers in southwest China, data were collected through the Motivation in English Reading Questionnaire (MERQ) and Cambridge Practice Tests for IELTS. Pearson correlation coefficients and multiple regression analysis were employed to analyze the data. The results show significant positive correlations between various motivational constructs and IELTS reading scores. Total motivation (r = .634, p < .001), efficacy and engagement (r = .520, p < .001), utility value (r = .459, p < .001), and academic value (r = .424, p < .001) are all positively associated with reading proficiency. Regression analysis indicates that intrinsic motivation, specifically efficacy and engagement (β = 0.504), is the strongest predictor of reading scores, followed by utility value (β = 0.351) and academic value (β = 0.315). These findings underscore the essential role of both intrinsic and extrinsic motivations in improving reading proficiency among Chinese IELTS learners.

Objective: This research investigates the influence of integrative and instrumental motivations on English Language Learning (ELL) among students in private educational institutions within the United Arab Emirates (UAE). It aims to discern which type of motivation—integrative or instrumental—exerts a greater impact on second language acquisition. Method: A quantitative research methodology was employed, utilizing a 44-item questionnaire adapted from the Motivation Test Battery. The study sample consisted of 101 English as a Second Language (ESL) students. Statistical tools such as regression analysis and correlation coefficients were used to analyse the data, providing insights into the relationships between motivational types and language acquisition success. Results and Discussion: The study revealed a positive correlation between both integrative and instrumental motivations and ELL. Notably, integrative motivation had a more substantial influence on the ESL outcomes compared to instrumental motivation. These results underline the complexity of motivational impacts on language learning, with integrative motivation playing a pivotal role. Research Implications: The findings suggest that educational strategies that enhance integrative motivation could be more effective in promoting successful language learning. This could involve fostering a deeper connection with the language community and culture, thereby enriching the educational experience and outcomes for ESL learners. Originality/Value: This study contributes to the existing body of knowledge by focusing on the comparative impacts of integrative and instrumental motivations in the context of the UAE—a region where such studies are seldom conducted. The insights regarding the predominant influence of integrative motivation add a valuable dimension to the global discourse on second language acquisition, especially in multilingual and multicultural learning environments.

Motivation can be seen as a major factor in improving physical exercise behavior among people. Evaluating the motivational of university students towards physical fitness workout is important to implement intervention strategies’ to increase their motivationlevel for their personal development and achievement of individual goals.This study aimed to assess university first-year undergraduate students' motivations for engaging in physical fitness workout and how those motivations related to contextual factors. The study used a cross-sectional survey design consisted of 323 sample students at Bahir Dar University. The majority age of the students (n= 216, 66.9%) were 20 years old. The adapted Exercise Self-Regulation Questionnaire (SRQ-E) was used to measure the motivation for physical fitness workout.The results were analyzed using descriptive statistics and t tests. The results show that overall mean of students’ motivation for physical fitness workout was below the average (2.85). The mean scores of most few motivational variables show significant statistical difference across the students religion, and residential status (p<.05).As far as major field was concerned, there was a statistically significant difference between natural and social science students in the two motivational variables: identified regulation and external motivation (p<.05,Cohen's d= -.123 & -.027). To understand the motivation of freshman students for physical fitness workout in universities, future research needs to consider the direct effect of some other contextual variables.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The motivational mechanism of an architectural and construction manager’s activity is a complex and multifaceted process that requires careful studying and analysing various aspects. This article is a study of this mechanism with a view to the identification of the key factors and their impact on the motivation of managers. According to the authors, motivating an architectural and construction manager is a complex and multifaceted process that includes two main components: motivating subordinates and personal and professional development of the manager himself. An important component of successful management in the construction industry is employee motivation. The motivation of employees towards the achievement of common goals through encouragement, training and development, as well as support in difficult situations, are key aspects of this process. Financial incentives also continue to be an important factor for some members of staff. Creating individualised plans that take into account the needs and motivations of employees is important to motivate them effectively. Key elements of a motivation strategy include developing creativity, professional skills and setting clear goals. The personal motivation of a manager also plays an important role in the achievement of success. Factors that influence a manager’s motivation and performance include the internal need for success and recognition, self-actualisation through creativity, and the need for recognition and professional achievement. In addition to technical skills, a successful manager in the architecture and construction industry must have leadership skills, strategic thinking and adaptability to changes in the industry. To ensure the sustainability of the company’s development, it is important to manage resources and budgets rationally. The conclusions emphasise that an important aspect of successful management in the architectural and construction industry is the development and stimulation of managerial motivation. This process is a matter of continuous improvement and consideration of the various factors that have an impact on motivation and productivity. The key components of effective motivation are approaching each employee individually, developing the manager’s personal and professional qualities, as well as leadership and strategic thinking skills. An important task for a manager is to create a stable and effective team that shares common goals and knows how to work together. Employees should be given opportunities to grow and develop, encouraging them to be creative and take the initiative to generate new ideas and increase overall productivity. In addition, in order to achieve high results in the architecture and construction industry, it is important to maintain a positive working climate and to develop effective motivational strategies that would add energy and motivation.

This review explores the multifaceted field of motivation within organizational behavior by synthesizing insights from some research. The research is founded on an extensive literature review encompassing various studies that address motivation-related issues within organizational behavior. Spanning foundational theories to contemporary paradigms, the review delves into intrinsic and extrinsic motivational factors, justice perceptions, emotional influences, and the interplay of creativity. It highlights the evolution of motivational theories, ranging from Adams' equity theory to modern constructs like self-determination theory and goal-setting theory, emphasizing the dual nature of motivation. Justice perceptions emerge as crucial influencers of behavior, while transformational leadership behaviors amplify motivation, job satisfaction, and commitment. The relationship of emotions adds another layer, where positive affect enhances expectancy and motivation. The temporal dynamics of motivation and its creative potential are also explored. The review culminates in a nuanced understanding of motivation's essence, guiding organizations toward fostering engagement and productivity. It serves as a foundation for further exploration, reflecting the intricate variety of motivational factors that influence organizational behavior.

Employee motivation is a prerequisite for the effective development of the potential of human resources. Therefore, motivation processes are important. The aim of the paper was to define the motivational priorities of white-collar employees in forest enterprises. Following the research results, cluster analysis statistical methods were used to define employee groups with similar motivations. The research was carried out in 11 forest enterprises with 195 total respondents. The results indicated that it is possible to create a unified motivation program with selected motivation factors for white-collar employees in forest enterprises. Defined groups had similar levels of motivation in individual motivation factors. Three significant motivation factors were determined: basic salary, working environment, and fair appraisal system. These motivation factors can be systematically implemented as a tool to improve the level of motivation of individual groups. It is important to consider that conditions and work environments change over time, so an effective motivation program must be updated regularly in order to produce sustained benefits.

The article is aimed at studying the regularities of labor behavior of the individual and determining the directions for diagnosing the motivation of employees of different levels of management. The article analyzes contemporary theories of motivation: meaningful, process and field theories. The regularities of theories of motivation are determined and directions of diagnostics of personnel motivation are proposed in accordance with the identified patterns. According to meaningful theory of motivation, a person’s behavior is determined by his unmet needs; according to the process theory – one’s expectations and subjective assessments related to a particular situation and the possible consequences of its chosen type of behavior; according to the field theory – one’s personal characteristics and environmental factors (organizational culture, social environment). In this regard, the diagnostic instrumentarium for motivating staff should ensure that information about the list of needs and their hierarchy is obtained; subjective valuations of employees as to the significance and fairness of remuneration, its compliance with the efforts spent, the complexity of work, etc., further the motivational impact of organizational culture and leadership on the labor behavior of personnel be determined. The expediency of using the «Motivational Profile» questionnaire by S. Ritchie and P. Martin to determine the actual needs of the staff is substantiated; an authors’ own questionnaire was developed to obtain assessments of managers regarding the factors of motivation, as identified in the process theories of motivation and theories of the «field». The application of the «Motivational Profile» allows to determine the most significant factors of staff motivation, including the following: material encouragement, recognition, interesting and useful work, self-improvement and the desire for achievements. The authors’ questionnaire made it possible to identify the relationship between effort, result and reward. The results of the performed questionnaire survey of employees show that the system of remuneration of personnel is outdated, labor contributions significantly exceed the remuneration received, the social environment ambiguously affects their motivation. The obtained results helped to determine the problem areas in the motivation of managers, which in the future will allow to form an effective mechanism for motivating management personnel.

Based on the motivation theory, this study aims to investigate the motivational orientations of the English learners from Management majors. 32 graduate students participated in the questionnaire and accomplished the interview in this research. Based on the statistics processed by SPSS, it is found that (1) instrumental orientation is significantly stronger than the integrative type; (2) among all the motivation items, the most three significant motivations are preparing for a future career, desiring to be a knowledgeable person and passing exams. Besides, based on the analysis of interview, a model of major-oriented, international and nested systems of instrumental motivation was constructed, indicating the interrelationship between motivational factors: globalization, social expectation, university policy, major needs and learner factors. It is expected that this study can provide some implications to English teaching to management students with the investigation of the systematic structure of their motivations.

AbstractNatural selection has imbued biological agents with motivations moving them to act for survival and reproduction, as well as to learn so as to support both. Artificial agents also require motivations to act in a goal-directed manner and to learn appropriately into various memories. Here we present a biologically inspired motivation system, based on feelings (including emotions) integrated within the LIDA cognitive architecture at a fundamental level. This motivational system, operating within LIDA’s cognitive cycle, provides a repertoire of motivational capacities operating over a range of time scales of increasing complexity. These include alarms, appraisal mechanisms, appetence and aversion, and deliberation and planning.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This article is an attempt to conceptualise the possibility of two coexisting language learning motivational subsystems for an existing L2 (or L2s) and an L3 currently being learnt, which gives rise to a complex dynamic dual-motivational system. As is generally accepted, an L2 in second language acquisition is defined as any language learned in addition to a person’s first language, which can be the second, third or any other subsequent language. Partly because of this, there appeared to be an assumption that L2 motivation, in general, could be applied to all these “L2s”. In more recent studies, however, it was pointed out that L3 learning may sometimes have an adverse influence on one’s lexical activation, L2 identity, or general L2 motivation. In particular, L2 and L3 motivations have been conceptualised as two quite distinct yet related systems. Against this backdrop, this article argues that L2 and L3 (with any subsequent languages) deserve discrete statuses, as do the motivations of learning them. It then follows that there exists a dual-motivation system for multilinguals. From a Complexity Dynamic Systems Theory perspective, this paper presents an up-to-date review of the mutual influences between languages among multilingual learners, discusses the similarities and differences between L2 and L3 motivational systems, and, most interestingly, explores the interaction between the two types of additional language learning motivation among multilinguals. This article ends with a close look into how the notion of a dual-motivation system could shed light on L2 and L3 pedagogies. It suggests how teachers could maintain existing learning motivation when another language is introduced to one’s linguistic repertoire and avoid detrimental effects that might thus be caused.

This mixed-method study aims to investigate science students’ motivational orientations and their self-perceived experiences contributing to self-determination in EFL reading at a secondary school in Thailand. Drawing upon the questionnaire and semi-structured interviews, the findings revealed that the overall science students’ EFL reading motivations were moderate. Each of their motivational orientations was ranked as follows: identified regulation (ID), intrinsic motivation (IM), external regulation (ER), introjected regulation (IJ), and amotivation (AM), accordingly. ID, a motivational orientation with regard to autonomous motivation, seemed to best correspond with the science students’ perceptions. They also valued the influence of social-contextual variables (i.e., families, peers, and teachers) as relatively important to their behavioural control toward EFL reading (ER and IJ). This study offers pedagogical implications to improve science students’ EFL reading motivation.

Motivating public service employees to greater effort is a key issue for managers and scholars. Transformational leadership concerns behaviors to develop, share, and sustain a vision for the organization and has been suggested as an important lever in this respect. However, we know little about the processes by which transformational leadership may stimulate work motivation. Integrating transformational leadership, public service motivation (PSM), and self-determination theory, this article sheds light on the psychological mechanisms underlying the motivational effects of transformational leadership. According to structural equation modeling, the relationships between transformational leadership and two types of autonomous work motivation—intrinsic motivation and PSM—are mediated by the satisfaction of the basic psychological needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness. Our findings support the claim that the motivational effects of transformational leadership are mediated by need satisfaction, but also that satisfaction of individual needs is not equally important for intrinsic motivation and PSM, respectively.

Employee motivation is very important for a successful organization, so any company should focus on motivating human resources if they want to stay competitive on the market and to avoid issues, such as employee retention problems that will adversely affect the business. Thus, effective motivational techniques should be implemented in any company that wants to be successful. Following the implementation of motivation methods adapted to the organization's environment and its type of employees, the satisfaction of workers will increase, and they will feel more motivated to perform at the highest standards. Studies have shown that motivating factors, such as success at work, recognition, diversification of responsibilities and career advancement, play an important role in motivating employees at work. It is important to strike a fragile balance between the level of challenges that the job brings and the resources made available to the employee. Packages that combine financial and non-monetary motivation, with coaching and mentoring activities, investing in employee development, as well as the flexibility of the work schedule, are major components of stimulating work motivation.

The Self-determination theory (SDT) posits the existence of distinct taxonomy of motivation (i.e., amotivation, external, introjected, identified, integrated, and intrinsic motivation). The purpose of this study was to explore whether SDT’s work motivation structure can be applied to the understanding that of Korean employees, and to identify the motivational profiles for Korean employees together with their relationships with a variety of organizational outcomes. Data was collected from two separate samples of Korean employees(Study 1: 509 employees; Study 2: 153 employees). The results showed that unlike SDT taxonomy, autonomous motivations were not classified into three distinctive categories(identified, integrated, and intrinsic motivation). The results also revealed that there were three distinct motivational profiles(i.e., autonomous motivated, controlled motivated, and amotivated), and the largest proportion of Korean employees was covered by controlled motivated cluster. The autonomous motivated cluster had the most favorable levels of adaptive organizational outcomes(i.e., organizational commitment, job satisfaction), whereas the amotivated cluster was strongly related to non-adoptive organizational outcomes(i.e., turnover, emotional exhaustion). Based on these results, discussion was made regarding the distinct features of work motivation structure and motivational profiles in Korean work setting, and also future research directions were suggested.

This exploratory study challenges the predominant static view of travel motivation by providing new insights into the link between travel motivations and behaviors. It assesses when and how tourist travel motives change over time. It further explores the mediating role of travel involvement and the moderating role of economic performance using the time-variant travel motivational framework as a longitudinal, multilevel model. This study advances the literature by demonstrating that travel motivations and their effects on tourist travel involvement and behaviors vary over time, and that such a variation can be explained by the changes in economic conditions. In essence, this study sheds light on the traditional view of travel motivation and builds a dynamic multilevel model of pleasure travel motivation and behavior.

The purpose of this study was to determine leisure motivations for college club swimmers in the United States, and to examine differences in motivation by swimmers' gender, university affiliation, ethnicity, and frequency of participation. College club swimmers from a nationwide sample completed the Leisure Motivation Scale (LMS) to assess the strength and differences of varying motivational factors for club swimming participation. Results indicated that social and competency-mastery motivational factors were the most important for this participatory group, and that motivational differences existed based upon respondent university affiliation, ethnicity (White/non-White) and frequency of participation.

Purpose Academic studies have sought to understand the motivations of festival and event attendees usually through single-event case studies. This approach has failed to generate a generalizable set of motivation items. In addition, there is increasing criticism in the literature of the common methodological framework used in festival motivation studies, due to a perceived over-reliance on motivations derived from the broader tourism and travel research, with too little attention to event-specific factors. The purpose of this paper is to address these issues by analyzing a sub-category of motivation studies, music festivals, in order to see if this approach can elicit a consistent set of motivation dimensions for the sub-category, which can in turn be compared and contrasted with the broader literature. A new case study of motivations to attend the 28th Macau International Music Festival (MIMF) is included to complement the existing music festival sub-category by adding a classical music and music festivals in Asia. Design/methodology/approach Motivation dimensions important to music festivals are compared to dimensions across the broader festival motivation literature to find similarities and differences. Factor analysis is used to identify the motivation dimensions of attendees at the MIMF and the results are compared to those of existing music festival studies. Findings Music festival goers are shown to be primarily motivated by the core festival offering, the music, in contrast to festival attendees in general, where socialization has emerged as the primary motivating element. The results of the additional case study support these findings. Originality/value In contrast to previous research, this study examines the possibility of identifying common motivations among festival attendees through studying festivals by sub-categories.

<p>The article discusses the motivational aspects of professional and personal reliability of a specialist of law enforcement agencies. The peculiarities of the dynamics of his professional motivation in difficult situations are revealed. The ways of maintaining it at the level necessary for the performance of professional tasks are highlighted. The problem of controlling and increasing the motivation of a specialist as a professional is investigated, which makes it possible to effectively provide psychological support for a professionally significant motivational orientation. Theoretical analysis and experimental approbation of the problem solution are presented. The sub-components of the motivational factor in the course of a number of studies are justified: dispositional motivation; situational motivation; stable Self-image in the context of fulfilling professional duty; reflexivity of motives. The features of the resulting motivation dynamics are investigated, it is experimentally established that the dynamics of a specialist’s motivation in various professional situations has its own patterns and is implemented in they are divided into the main four stages. In situations of practical activity, the motivational factor of professional and personal reliability, according to the authors, is constantly present at the background level. The main motivating component for actions to perform professional tasks directly in a situation is the presence of a rationalized professional dispositional motivation; awareness by a specialist of the professional and personal consequences of his actions; the ability to reflect, self-determination, that is, to arbitrarily activate internal situational motivation.</p>

This study explores the impact of motivation on the performance of health promotion staff at the Jalan Gedang Health Centre in Bengkulu City, addressing a gap in understanding the role of intrinsic and extrinsic motivators in public health contexts. Using a mixed-methods approach with quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews involving 50 staff members, the research aims to identify key motivational factors influencing performance. Results show that intrinsic motivation, such as personal growth and job satisfaction, and extrinsic factors, including recognition, incentives, and a supportive work environment, are significantly associated with enhanced performance. Staff who feel valued and supported demonstrate greater engagement, contributing to improved health outcomes in the community. The findings highlight the need for motivating work environments through leadership, recognition programs, and professional development, underscoring motivation’s potential to enhance service quality in public health.
