With the current trend towards providing support for assertions in the news, social media, academics, and business (i.e., analytics), learning to find support for your statements is a valuable skill. In this discussion, you will get some practice finding support for the topic provided as well as some practice applying a model to explain your response to a query.
Part 1: Supporting Assertions (initial posting): Go to the Purdue Global Library following the instructions above, and look for peer-reviewed research articles regarding the topic of: "Better salary and benefits motivate better employee performance."
It does not matter whether the peer-reviewed research found support or not for this statement.
Choose an article not used by another student and report the findings using an in-text citation (see the reading area), and accompanying reference . (Hint: In research studies, you can look at the Abstract section at the beginning or in the final pages where the summarized results are usually found.)
Part 2
Applying the job characteristics model, discuss your current or past job in terms of the model (see the learning activity on motivation applied - Part 3) to explain why you were or are currently motivated and satisfied, or not, with the work.
