Which of the following holds that intrinsic factors are related to job satisfaction and extrinsic factors are related to job dissatisfaction?
A) Maslow's hierarchy of needs
B) McGregor's Theory X and Theory Y
C) Vroom's expectancy theory
D) Herzberg's motivation-hygiene theory
Answer: D
Explanation: Maslow's hierarchy of needs discusses internal and external factors, but not in terms of job satisfaction, so it is an incorrect choice. Neither McGregor's X and Y theories nor Vroom's expectancy theory directly address job satisfaction so they are both incorrect. Herzberg's motivation-hygiene theory is a job satisfaction/dissatisfaction theory, so it is the correct choice.
