Question 11: What is the main advantage of Behavioral Observation Scales (BOS) over other rating formats? a) They require less work from the rater b) They provide a single rating for each category c) They are easy to develop and use d) They estimate internal consistency reliability Question 12: What are the three kinds of organizational needs that job design is intended to meet, as mentioned in the text? a) Managerial needs, operational needs, and organizational structure needs b) Production system needs, technological needs, and individual worker needs c) Personal, social, and economic needs d) Production system needs, social-organizational needs, and individual worker needs Question 13: What are the challenges of analyzing managerial jobs, according to the text? a) Interpersonal interactions are easy to describe behaviorally. b) Cognitive task analysis cannot be applied to managerial jobs. c) Managerial tasks are always observable and informative. d) Observing mental work is more difficult than physical work. Question 14: What is the focus of Cognitive Task Analysis in job analysis? a) Tools and equipment used in the job b) Human engineering and job-friendly design c) Standard lists of human abilities d) Mental processes and strategies used in completing the job Question 15: What distinguishes the point-factor method from the factor comparison method in job evaluation? a) Point-factor method evaluates jobs based on direct assessment, while factor comparison method relies on job descriptions. b) Factor comparison method is more suitable for team-based evaluations. c) Factor comparison method assigns points to jobs, while point-factor method assigns dollar values. d) Point-factor method uses job titles, while factor comparison method uses narrative descriptions. Question 16: Why does the text suggest relying on sizable groups of raters for evaluating KSAOs in C-JAM? a) To focus on perceptions and concrete objects in the evaluation process. b) To reduce biases of individual raters and increase reliability. c) To ensure high reliability of individual raters. d) To minimize the impact of demographic features on ratings.

Question 17: In the context of equity theory, what is considered equitable (fair) according to Adams (1965)? a) Equal inputs and outcomes for all employees b) Similar outcomes for similar inputs compared to others c) Equal outcomes for all employees d) Unequal outcomes for those with higher qualifications Question 18: What distinguishes job design from other job analysis methods? a) Job design attempts to tailor people to jobs through selection or training. b) Job design focuses on worker attributes, while other methods focus on work areas. c) Job design relies heavily on abstract attribute measures. d) Job design involves job alterations, making jobs better suit people. Question 19: What is the primary goal of job evaluation? a) Creating a formal hierarchy within the workplace b) Assessing the value or worth of jobs in an organization c) Providing additional benefits to employees d) Setting salaries for executives Question 20: What is the primary focus of the Needs Assessment phase in the training cycle? a) Identifying organizational goals b) Evaluating the effectiveness of training c) Selecting appropriate training methods d) Analyzing the tasks and KSAOs involved in training Instructions: Choose the correct option for each question. Each question carries one point. 1. What is the dependent variable in the study? a) Employee Motivation b) Resource Availability c) Job Satisfaction d) Constant 2. What does the standardized coefficient (Beta) represent? a) The strength of the relationship between variables b) The direction of the relationship between variables c) The percentage of variance explained by the predictor variable d) The magnitude of the constant term 3. In the first model, how much percentage of variance is explained by Resource Availability alone? a) Approximately 24.60% b) Approximately 62.41% c) Approximately 12.18% d) Approximately 86.01% 4. What is the standardized coefficient (Beta) for Resource Availability in the second model? a) 0.927 b) 0.409 c) 0.790 d) -0.575 5. How is the percentage of variance explained calculated from the standardized coefficient (Beta)? a) Squaring the Beta value b) Taking the square root of the

Beta value c) Dividing the Beta value by the sample size d) Adding the Beta value to 100 6. What does a negative standardized coefficient for Employee Motivation indicate? a) Employee Motivation has no effect on job satisfaction b) There is a negative relationship between Employee Motivation and job satisfaction c) Employee Motivation has a stronger effect than Resource Availability d) There is a reverse causality between Employee Motivation and job satisfaction 7. Which statistical test determines the significance of the coefficients? a) Chi- square test b) T-test c) ANOVA d) Correlation analysis 8. What does a p-value of less than 0.05 signify for a coefficient? a) The coefficient is statistically significant b) The coefficient is not statistically significant c) There is no relationship between variables d) The coefficient is negatively related to the dependent variable 9. What is the purpose of the constant term in regression analysis? a) To account for measurement error b) To adjust for multicollinearity c) To represent the mean value of the dependent variable d) To provide a baseline for comparison 10.Which model has both Resource Availability and Employee Motivation as predictors? a) Model 1 b) Model 2 c) Neither Model 1 nor Model 2 d) Both Model 1 and Model 2 What is the role of the unstandardized coefficients in regression analysis? a) They represent the percentage of variance explained by each predictor variable. b) They show the direction and magnitude of the relationship between variables. c) They are used to calculate the p-values of the coefficients. d) They standardize the data for easier interpretation. What is the primary focus of the study based on the provided information? a) Employee satisfaction with job resources b) Employee motivation levels c) Factors influencing job satisfaction d) Employee performance evaluation How is the significance of the model overall usually determined? a) By examining the standardized coefficients b) By analyzing the p-value of the dependent variable c) By conducting a significance test on the F-statistic d) By comparing the adjusted R-squared values What does a high Beta value indicate? a) A weak relationship between variables b) A strong relationship between variables c) No relationship between variables d) A perfect positive correlation between variables What does a p-value greater than 0.05 indicate for a coefficient? a) The coefficient is statistically significant b) The coefficient is not statistically significant c) There is a strong relationship between variables d) The coefficient is positively related to the dependent variable
