he basic expectancy framework suggests that for motivated behavior to occur,

a$.$ none of the valences for the relevant potential outcomes should be negative.

b$.$ the performance$-$to$-$outcome expectancies should approach zero.

c$.$ the effort$-$to$-$performance ratio should be well above $10.$

d$.$ the sum of all the valences for the relevant potential outcomes must be negative.

e$.$ the positive valences should outweigh the negative valences of potential outcomes.
