We present a new theoretical construct labeled motivational readiness. It is defined as the inclination, whether or not ultimately implemented, to satisfy a desire. A general model of readiness is described which builds on the work of prior theories, including animal learning models and personality approaches, and which aims to integrate a variety of research findings across different domains of motivational research. Components of this model include the Want state (that is, an individual’s currently active desire), and the Expectancy of being able to satisfy that Want. We maintain that the Want concept is the critical ingredient in motivational readiness: without it, readiness cannot exist. In contrast, some motivational readiness can exist without Expectancy. We also discuss the role of incentive in motivational readiness. Incentive is presently conceived of in terms of a Match between a Want and a Perceived Situational Affordance. Whereas in classic models incentive was portrayed as a first order determinant of motivational readiness, here we describe it as a second order factor which affects readiness by influencing Want, Expectancy, or both. The new model’s relation to its theoretical predecessors, and its implications for future research, also are discussed.

This study is to analyze the effectiveness of an incentive-based obesity management program (the Midas Project aimed to improve good health habits) at an electronics company in 2005. A total of 95 company participants with a high body mass index (BMI) were recruited for a health promotion program for 3 months that awarded gold medals as an incentive for body fat loss. BMI decreased from 28.8 to 27.8 kg/m² (p = .000), body weight decreased from 87.2 to 83.5 kg (p = .000), and body fat weight decreased from 25.4 to 23.3 kg (p = .000). Systolic and diastolic blood pressure decreased from 130.5 to 125.1 mmHg (p = .002), from 86.4 to 81.7 mmHg (p = .009). The percentage of participants exercising more than 3 times per week increased from 27.3 to 52.3% (p = .000). The percentage who avoided overeating at parties and midnight eating increased from 65.9 to 72.7% (p = .767) and 70.5 to 84.1% (p = .172), respectively. This incentive-based obesity management program was effective in improving not only BMI but also health status.

The purpose of the presented research was to find out which external and internal considerations and life experience motivate students for acquiring university education for the teaching profession to major in preschool teaching. Data collection was based on the method of unstructured interview on a given theme. Evaluation was based on coding. The presented factors are external factors of the “people” category. Every category is divided into sub-categories and the subcategories are further subdivided to subgroups on the basis of the nature of the incentive. Young people were mainly affected in their decision-making by their mother, her professional and private behaviour, by positive stimuli from their grandmothers, aunts and children. Fathers were not mentioned as actors in making this kind of decision. The most frequently mentioned human factor was represented by female teachers on different levels of education and from different school types. The discouraging factors included schoolmates. Children and schoolmates were newly identified considerations.

The reason to conduct this research study is to demonstrate the direct link of the various incentives to the employees for their motivation and also to know to what extent various rewards or incentives are utilized in the private and public organizations to motivate the employees. This study reveals the relationship between incentives such as participation in decision making, favorable climate, salary, bonus, etc. and employees' motivation in any organization. To realize the objectives of this paper, a survey study was administered on the teaching staff of various management institutions in NCR. The relevance of this study is very much attractive and going to be popular for academia because monetary rewards are the best majority of people and one and only common incentive for all employees to attract and retain. In the methodology, a structured questionnaire used for data collection instruments. Both descriptive and exploratory statistics were used to analyze and interpret data of around 100 samples collected through random and convenience sampling. On the basis of previous research and current findings, a triangulation model on the employer branding process has been developed and presented.As indicated by the aftereffects of the examination, a large portion of the representatives imagine that the degree of usage of the fiscal impetuses in their association is lacking. Likewise, the discoveries recommend that the estimation of financial motivating forces as much as non-money related motivators. Along these lines, inside the confinements of the study, it might be presumed that financial impetuses or prizes can possibly build the inspiration of faculty in general society and private association. It is additionally discovered that among all the money-related impetuses or prizes 'reward and motivators' is the most significant motivating force to rouse the representatives in the association.

The basic task of the experimental studies related in the article was to learn about the specificity of the Polish population as far as response of potential respondents is concerned to marketing research conducted with the use of the method of postal survey. To this end significance of effect of 15 variables on the return rate of the questionnaires was checked. The variables were distinguished on the basis of analysis of the relevant literature as well as of study results and Polish university teachers' experiences. A900 person random sample was drawn with the help of acomputer algorithm that was representative of the whole of adult Lublin residents with respect to age and sex. The whole drawn sample was divided into 16 experimental groups, each group numbering 50 subjects, and one control numbering 100 subjects. Each of the distinguished groups represented a different variable that was studied. The study results show that enclosing an envelope for the reply, reminding of the reply, enclosing a greater sum of money with the questionnaire, and a higher education and older age of the possible respondents had a positive effect on the percentage of returned questionnaires. The percentage was decreased when the envelopes containing the questionnaires were franked, the volume of the questionnaires was bigger, the survey was under the auspices of a private study centre, the subject was prenotified about his participation in the survey and when too small a sum of money was offered for the participation (50 gr). However, such variables as the subject of the survey, anonymity of the respondents, a repeated dispatch of the questionnaires, lottery and the sex of the respondents did not have a significant effect on the degree of return in the light of the obtained results. If anonymity was not guaranteed, or respondents were offered taking part in the study in return for filling in the questionnaire, and in the case of female respondents we can only talk about tendencies to decrease the return rate.
