<Li> Context Satisfaction: The context of the job also affects employees' experience . The authors suggest that when workers are satisfied with things like their managers, pay, co-workers, and job security they respond more positively to highly motivating jobs and less positively when they are not satisfied . The reason being that they must use attentional resources to handle the undesirable work context, which distracts from the richness otherwise inherent in the job . </Li> <P> The three critical psychological states of job characteristic theory (JCT) draw upon cognitive motivation theory and some previous work on identifying the presence of certain psychological states could lead to favorable outcomes . JCT provided the chance to systematically assessed the relationship between the previously discovered psychological states (' Experienced Meaningfulness,' Experienced Responsibility, and Knowledge of Results) and outcomes . More importantly, previous work on work design showed job characteristics can predict individual performance, but did not provide "why" and "how" this relationship existed . Job Characteristics Theory filled this gap by building a bridge between job characteristics and work - related outcomes through the use of the three critical psychological states . </P> <P> The three psychological states, which are also the conceptual core of the theory, include (1) Experienced Meaningfulness of the Work, (2) Experienced Responsibility for the Outcomes of the Work, and (3) Knowledge of the Results of Work Activities . These psychological states are theorized to mediate the relationship between job characteristics and work - related outcomes . According to the theory, these three critical psychological states are noncompensatory conditions, meaning jobholders have to experience all three critical psychological states to achieve the outcomes proposed in the model . For example, when workers experience the three psychological states, they feel good about themselves when they perform well . These positive feelings, in turn, reinforce the workers to keep performing well . </P> <P> According to the theory, certain core job characteristics are responsible for each psychological state: skill variety, task identity, and task significance shape the experienced meaningfulness; autonomy affects experienced responsibility, and feedback contributes to the knowledge of results . Previous research found that four job characteristics (autonomy, variety, identity, and feedback) could increase workers' performance, satisfaction, and attendance . Task significance was derived from Greg Oldham's own work experience as an assembly line worker . Though his job did not provide task variety or identity, he still experienced meaningfulness through the realization that others depended on his work . This realization led to the inclusion of task significance as another job characteristic that would influence experienced meaningfulness of the job . Thus, job characteristics theory proposed the five core job characteristics that could predict work related outcomes . </P>
