Research on the social information processing view of job design supports the view that:
A)while objective task complexity may be a motivator, social interaction may be an important additional source of motivation
B)group pressure as being more important in the definition of task complexity than a objective measure
C)daydreaming is more important than objective task complexity as being an additional motivator
D)an objective probability estimate is still the best estimate of a task's difficulty and consequently a good indicator of the potential motivational properties of a task

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research on the social information processing view of job design suggests that social interaction can be a significant motivator in addition to objective task complexity. Group pressure is not considered more important than an objective measure of task complexity. Daydreaming is not supported as a motivator in job design. While objective probability estimates are relevant, they are not necessarily the best indicator of a task's motivational properties.
