Edna, a fashion photographer at a media company, feels demotivated at work because her colleague, barry, a forensic photographer, gets paid more than her even though he has fewer responsibilities than her. which of the following theories of motivation does this scenario best illustrate?

a) expectancy theory
b) equity theory
c) alderfer's erg theory
d) mcclelland's learned needs theory

  Option B                  

Explanation: The principle of equity is based on the assumption that people are motivated by equality, and if they find inequities in their own inputs or performance ratios and their predicate party, they may try to change their inputs to achieve their expected worth.

The simplest way for seeing the equity principle at the job, and probably the most obvious way it impacts workers, is by comparing the job they perform to somebody else who gets rewarded more than them.

Hence from the above we can conclude that the correct option is B.

1   all nations face the problem of scarcity because there are limited resources and unlimited wants. nations do not have enough factors of production to produce everything that their population wants. entrepreneurial resources initiate businesses to make new goods and services; labor resources produce goods and services.

2 there are four factors of production: natural resources, labor resources, capital resources, and entrepreneurial resources. natural resources are raw materials from nature that are used to produce goods. trees, water, and grains are natural resources. some natural resources, such as wheat and cattle, are renewable
