“…Our rationale is that prior research has established a strong positive relationship between the actual level of a job attribute and individuals' satisfaction with that attribute, including in the R&D context (Cable and Edwards 2004, Idson 1990, Wood and LeBold 1970. 6 Because individuals' satisfaction with independence may not only reflect actual levels of independence but also their preference for independence ( …”

A growing body of research views industrial and academic science as characterized by conflicting institutional logics.However, other scholars have long claimed that stark differences between the two sectors exist in theory but not in practice. Drawing on both views and the broader organizational literature, we develop a conceptual framework to compare and contrast industrial and academic science along four interdependent dimensions: (1) the nature of work, (2) characteristics of the workplace, (3) characteristics of workers, and (4) the disclosure of research results. We then employ detailed survey data on a sample of more than 5,000 research-active life scientists and physical scientists to examine key aspects of the framework empirically. Our results suggest that the conflicting logics view tends to overstate differences across sectors while ignoring important heterogeneity within sectors. We further advance the understanding of institutional logics by examining the relationships among dimensions of science, including the degree to which differences in the nature of work explain differences in how work is organized and results are disclosed. We discuss directions for future research on the institution of science as well as implications for managers and policy makers concerned with scientific activity within and across sectors.

“…Although Herzberg [32] popularised this notion of "intrinsic" and "extrinsic" factors within the framework of his controversial motivator-hygiene theory, these constructs enjoy long-standing tradition in sociology, industrial psychology, and management. These work value constructs have proved useful in understanding the nature of job satisfaction [33], in distinguishing the value patterns of different occupational groups [27,28,34], in validating work value dimensions [35], in understanding cultural value systems, in conceptualising motivational processes [32,36,37], in analysing organisational attraction and retention of personnel [38], in making predictions about behavioural commitment [39] and describing sex differences in achievement motivation and occupational aspirations [19,40].…”

“…Some of them confirmed this theory (Taber 1991;Pinnings 1970;Semerek and Peterson 2007), others showed doubts (Even et al 1966;Graen 1966;House and Wigdor 1976). It has also been shown that this theory concerns too complex matter to be unambiguously evaluated (Wood and Lebold 1970). However, it is a good starting point for managerial solutions (Shipley and Kiely 1986).…”

The concept of the trichotomy of motivating factors in the workplace

The paper presents key issues related to motivation in the workplace and its methodological aspects, giving special attention to an analysis of the classification of motivation factors. It describes the characteristics of major selected factors. The author proposes a new approach to factors based on the concept of the trichotomy of motivation factors in the workplace (work environment and work situations) which extends Herzberg's two-factor theory. The concept identifies three groups of factors: "motivators" which, when they occur, lead to satisfaction, "hygiene factors" which, when they do not occur, lead to dissatisfaction, and "demotivators" which, when they occur, lead to dissatisfaction. Their vectors of impact are totally different, although they occur simultaneously in the workplace. Therefore, the presented concept constitutes a methodological directive which suggests the extension of the research area by including an analysis of factors which reduce motivation to work.
