Jacob is never late for work and only misses work if he is ill or on vacation. Which variable in the expectancy model does his behavior represent?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Jacob's behavior represents the first-level outcome variable in the expectancy model, as it is a direct behavior that is linked to the ultimate outcome (i.e. job performance). Neither expectancy nor instrumentality are represented by Jacob's behavior, and the concept of a second-level outcome is not relevant to this scenario.
