Answer to Question 1

A
Explanation: A) In equity theory, you compare yourself and a referent comparison based on the effort exerted for a task and the rewards each person receives. If you perceive the referent comparison receives more rewards than you for the same effort, you will be less motivated to continue putting in the same level of effort. The evaluation of equity is based on perceptions and not objective standards or data and it is internal to one person based on their individual perceptions of the factors.

Answer to Question 2

A
Explanation: A) Research and experience have shown that individuals can be motivated by higher order needs even without all lower level needs being fulfilled.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
