Stimuli
Stimuli are any objects and language which draw the attention of people. Employees get stimuli from the actions of their superiors.
Attention
The degree of attention depends upon the nature of stimuli. All stimuli are not paid attention to technical and interesting stimuli are highly attended. Career oriented stimuli are generally accepted by employee.
Recognition
Attention paid – stimuli are recognized as acceptable factors of improvement and new life styles. Employees paying attention to stimuli are recognizing the stimuli for learning process.
Translation
Recognized stimuli are evaluated at the mental level to eliminate the irrelevant points for accepting a part of the stimulus for changing behavior.
Reinforcement
Reinforced perception is learning. The perception process includes stimuli, attention, recognition, translation and behavior. Perception leads to learning, but perception itself is not learning unless it is reinforced.
Learning changes behavior through reinforcement of perceived knowledge. It makes permanent change in behavior. A temporary change in behavior is not learning. Positive behavior gives rewards to employees.
Reward
Employees expects rewards for learning. If the translated behavior provides a reward, it is accepted, otherwise it is not accepted.
Habits
A permanent change in behavior becomes a habit which helps continuous improvement in behavior and performance. Employees develop the habit of self – appraisal and development.
Motives
Motives depend on the level of satisfaction. Employees getting more satisfaction through learning develop high motives. Less satisfied learners have low motives. Learning is complete only when motives are fully realized and translated into efforts.
Efforts
Habits help achieve good efforts and performance. This is a continuous process. Efforts are the automatic outcome of good habits which are acquired through the learning process.
