It is an intervening variable.

  • Motivation is often thought of as an Intervening variable as it can often explain the relationship between the dependent and independent variables.
  • It is the connection between coercion and a behaviour shift. Between stimuli and responses, it is thought to be a causal factor.
  • The variable is inferred from behaviour rather than seen explicitly. It is not possible to infer intervening variables once stimulus response relationships have been formed.
  • Similarly, employee motivation is increased as a result of performance-related compensation, which contributes to increased work satisfaction.
