Discuss the extent to which each of the theories of motivation translate across cultures.

Most theories that revolve around human needs will come up against cultural limitations to their generality.However, research on self-determination theory has found that it is cross-culturally valid as the three psychological needs are positively related to autonomous motivation and autonomous motivation is related to work outcomes in different countries.Equity theory will depend on how rewards are allocated in a particular culture.Because of its flexibility, expectancy theory is very effective when applied cross-culturally.Goal setting has been found to translate in numerous countries and cultures; however, the goal setting process must be adjusted in each culture.
