Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The immediate job context includes the motivational tools (carrots and sticks) that superiors use to influence employee behavior. Obedience to authority refers to the extent to which employees are willing to follow the directives of their superiors. Locus of control is an individual difference variable that describes the extent to which individuals feel that they are in control of their own lives. The normative approach and descriptive approach are both broad theoretical frameworks for understanding organizational behavior, and do not specifically refer to motivational tools used by superiors.
