| Descrição: | Despite of being one of the central concepts in organizational psychology, research and development of new theories in work motivation have decreased considerably in recent years. Several authors suggest that this situation is the result of the dominating role that traditional theories of work motivation have exerted, and they indicate the necessity to develop new theoretical approaches and methodologies to revitalize the field. This article analyzes one of the most important criticisms directed toward the theories of processes and emphasizes on those criticisms that underline that work motivation theories generally failed to incorporate time as an important variable affecting the most relevant components of the theory and the people’s motivation. Our main conclusion is that work motivation has barely been studied as a process. Therefore, we present alternative approaches for the study of work motivation as a dynamic and complex phenomenon. |
