Two experiments tested the hypothesis that the combination of specific, hard goals and knowledge of results (KR) will lead to better performance than do-best goals with and without KR and specific, hard goals without KR. It was also predicted that the latter three conditions would not differ significantly. The first study yielded equivocal support for the predictions, but these results were attributed to possible flaws in the design of the study. A second study which eliminated these potential flaws confirmed the predictions. One intriguing result was that specific hard goal-KR subjects, despite performing best on the task as a whole, performed worst on one sub-element of the task which reflected degree of incidental learning. The implications of the findings are discussed. (Author).

A unique compendium of international investigations into motivation and performance, this book offers chapters by industrial and organizational psychologists from the United States, Europe, Australia, and Japan as they share their theories, concepts, empirical evidence, and practical evidence regarding the subject. The volume focuses on three distinct themes: * the relationship between motivation and performance * practical examples of building and strengthening the motivating potential with particular attention paid to productivity and the health of the employees * the development of work motivation over time and the change of the relative importance of central variables Work Motivation provides an exceptional blend of modern theoretical approaches, technologically sound techniques for solving practical problems, and empirical results to prove theoretical and technical validities.

"Goal theory has existed for many years. It has received wide study in academia and has become a large part of practitioner efforts to improve organizational performance. In all cases, goal setting has resulted in better organizational performance than its counter philosophy of "do your best". With the demands on organizations to compete globally and be competitive in an uncertain environment, it has never been more important for organizations to focus their efforts in the most effective way possible. Much research has been devoted to the many aspects of goal theory: self-set versus assigned, hard versus easy, group versus individual. One aspect that has not received much attention has been the effect of past experience on a group or individual's acceptance of the goal and repetitive goal usage. Given the prevalence of repetitive--daily, weekly, monthly, or annual goals--in the workplace, this issue is of critical importance. Using archival production records from a mid-west manufacturing firm, regression analysis was used to test hypotheses for effects of goal difficulty and past experience as well as their interaction on current performance. All models were found to be statistically significant, explaining up to 68% of the variance in current performance. As previously tested and supported in other research, difficult goals are positively associated with task performance. Contrary to previous testing, past experience was not a significant predictor of current performance. While the interaction of goal difficulty and past experience was statistically significant, the result was in a direction opposite to prediction, failing to support the initial hypothesis. These failures are attributed to statistical difficulties in the analysis arising from several factors encountered with the field study and the use of archival data. These included the measuring of goal difficulty, accounting for the use of repetitive goals prior to the period of this study's observation, and the potential effect of streamlined operations through lean manufacturing principles in combination with repetitive goal setting which possibly created a ceiling effect on impact of setting hard goals. These challenges and statistical results are discussed. Implications of the findings and directions for future research are presented."-- Abstract.
