Abstract
The purpose of this article is to evaluate the status of literature on work motivation in industrial/organizational psychology (i/o) field. I apply a qualitative research technique-‘co-occurrence of key words’ to analyze 503 peer-reviewed articles published between the years 2010 and 2019. Specific research themes are extracted. The themes indicate that work motivation is instrumental in achieving certain behavioral outcomes and human resource outcomes in organizations. Most significantly, work motivation is espoused through specific job characteristics. A study of these (job) characteristics has important implications for human resource practice. Recent research on the topic also found substantial interest in practices followed by public organizations. While these research directions by no means exhaust the possibilities for research on motivation. We hope it can inspire a dialog among industrial/organizational psychology theorists and practitioners

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
