B) Equity theory is the motivation theory that people assess their performance and attitudes by comparing both their contribution to work and the benefits they derive from it to the contributions and benefits of comparison others whom they select-and who in reality may or may not be like them. It evolved from social comparison theory-the theory that individuals must assess and know their degree of performance and the correctness of their attitudes in a situation. Lacking objective measures of performance or correct attitudes, they compare their performance and attitudes to those of others.
