mentality. Hotel employees think if they perform well in their job, they will definitely have a sense of accomplish-ment and feel good about themselves. But hotel employees do not think they will get better pay, monetary bonus, pay increases, or promotion even if they meet per-formance expectations. Hotel employees thought valence was an important attribute in motivation. Hotel employees prefer responsibility over job, using their abilities, and feeling of accomplishment, which are intrinsic valences to extrinsic valences of good pay, monetary bonuses, pay raises, and promotions. In sum, the modified expectancy theory model of this study (expectancy, extrinsic and intrinsic instrumentality, extrinsic and in-trinsic) was valid in the hotel employee setting and can be used to explain the attitudes of hotel employees in the workplace.
