Individual: piece-rate, commission, individual bonus; Group/organizational: profit-sharing, gain-sharing, team bonus, employee stock options (ESOPs).
What is the difference between an incentive and a fringe benefit?
An incentive is a reward directly tied to performance to motivate higher output; a fringe benefit is an indirect supplementary benefit given regardless of performance (medical, pension, leave).

Employee relations is the management of the relationship between employer and employees (individually and collectively), including communication, negotiation, and handling grievances and disputes.
What is the difference between a grievance and a dispute?

Perception is the process by which individuals organize and interpret sensory impressions to give meaning to their environment. A common error is stereotyping (judging by group membership).
What are the three components of an Attitude?
Cognitive (beliefs), Affective (feelings/emotions), and Behavioural (intention to act).
What is the difference between Attitudes and Values?

McClelland: need for Achievement, Affiliation and Power. Vroom: Motivation = Expectancy x Instrumentality x Valence.
What this deck covers
The Human Resource Management and Organizational Behavior deck follows the JAIBP Human Resource Management and Organizational Behavior syllabus — 6 chapters and 19 topics — so questions land on material that is genuinely examinable rather than trivia around it. That works out to roughly 8.3 cards per chapter.
Answers are written to be recallable, not just readable — averaging about 162 characters, which is long enough to carry the reasoning and short enough to say out loud.
A deck like this earns its keep on the second and third pass. Read the syllabus first so you know the shape of the subject, then use the cards to find the specific facts that have not stuck.
