                        Tabernero and Wood  Laboratory  High self-efficacy was related to an incremental
                        (1999)                        perception of ability; low self-efficacy was related to a
                                                      fixed view of ability.
                                                      Substandard performance feedback increased
                                                      performance for people with an incremental perception
                                                      of ability but not for people with a fixed perception of
                                                      ability.

                        Roberson et al.  Laboratory   Personal goals and task attributes had independent
                        (1990)                        effects on satisfaction.
                        Ambrose and Kulik  Review     Tasks that are perceived as enriched facilitated high
                        (1999)                        performance.
                        Campion          Review       Tasks that are perceived as enriched facilitated high
                        (1996)                        performance.
                        Mathieu and Zajac  Meta-analysis  Jobs that are perceived as enriched yielded high job
                        (1990)                        satisfaction and high organizational commitment.
                                                      Separation of job satisfaction into intrinsic satisfaction,
                                                      extrinsic satisfaction and its components yielded
                                                      significant correlations with organizational
                                                      commitment.
                        Kirkpatrick      Laboratory   Enriching jobs through increasing responsibility was
                        (1992)                        found to increase performance through self-set goals.
                        Cordery          Review       Increased performance through job enrichment
                        (1996, 1997)                  depended on supervisors providing a goal structure, a
                                                      method structure, the required KSAOs and goal

                        Phillips and Gully  Laboratory  Locus of control was positively related to self-efficacy
                        (1997)                        and indirectly related to difficulty of self-set goals.
                        Lambert et al.   Field        Self-set goals were more strongly related to increase
                        (1999)                        performance when individual has internal locus of
                                                      control.
                        Harackiewicz and  Laboratory  Achievement oriented individuals were more
                        Elliot (1993)                 responsive to performance than to learning goals.

                        (2001)                        mediated by goals and self-efficacy.
                        Button et al.    Laboratory   Goal orientation is composed of two distinguishable
                        (1996)                        dimensions, learning and performance.
