The antecedents and outcomes of food safety motivators for restaurant workers: An expectancy framework
2017, International Journal of Hospitality ManagementCitation Excerpt :The concept of work motivation asserts that the more effort one expends, the more motivated he/she will become; thus a self-perpetuating cycle of positive results occurs (Chiang and Jang, 2008; Lee-Ross, 1995). However, while previous research suggests that both valence and instrumentality can predict motivation, expectancy is not necessarily a driver of this relationship (Galbraith and Cummings, 1967). Additionally, expectancy has been shown to have lower predictive power (Butler and Cantrell, 1989).
