Answer to Question 1

Answer: 2; 5

Rationale:
 Salary: Satisfiers are those rewards having to do with the job itself. As these are internal, salary would not be included as a satisfier.
 Satisfaction: Satisfaction is an internal feeling, so it is considered a satisfier.
 Recognition: Recognition relies on external factors, so it would not be considered a satisfier.
 Environment: The environment in which a nurse works is considered external, so it is not a satisfier.
 Achievement: Achievement is a feeling, and would be considered a satisfier.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 1
Rationale: Intrinsic factors of motivation are those internal factors such as a sense of achievement, recognition, increased responsibility, and satisfaction for a job well done. Therefore, becoming more organized is an example of intrinsic motivation. Working hard to be liked more, to receive a bonus, and to avoid a lay-off are all considered extrinsic motivators, as they all involve factors external to the nurse.
