Leticia has been assigned a task for which she knows that she does not have the necessary skills or knowledge. However, she really wants the bonus she can earn by completing the task. According to expectancy theory, Leticia will be highly motivated to complete the task.

Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)


False

Leticia will have zero motivation to complete the task. Expectancy theory states that if any element (expectancy, instrumentality, or valence) is zero, the resulting motivation level will be zero. In this situation, although valence is positive, expectancy is zero. Therefore, overall motivation will be zero.
