    Hi Jack,

     

    perhaps you could rely on theory of planned behavior. See the website of Icek Ajzen – there is a manuscript that explicitely explains how to measure the constructs:

    Good Morning:

     

    I am working on a study of student computer usage for which my colleagues and I believe that personal motivation may affect outcomes. We would like to use survey questions that touch on expectancy theory, reinforcement theory, and equity theory concepts.

     

    Any advice on sources for these?

     

    Thanks.

     

    Jack
