Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Employees change their comparison other as a means of reducing feelings of inequity. This means that they are likely to change their reference point when they feel that their current reference point is leading to feelings of unfairness or inequity in comparison to others. This may happen independently of changes in their actual pay or benefits.
