Abstract
In the previous chapter we argued that as a consequence of a particular value system rooted deeply in British culture there were certain social-psychological consequences for persons who became engineers. An area that has been particularly investigated in respect of the social-psychological effects of work has been that of motivation and job satisfaction. In this chapter we will examine theories of motivation and job satisfaction partly — but not only — to help suggest how these relate to the processes of occupational choice and occupational socialization described in the previous chapter.
