great sir...I am from a science background and doing MBA now..and I have found tremendous help from your motivation series of videos regarding my presentation...thanks
Thank you so much for the explanation 😊 it really helped me with my test. Very clearly explained and precise points that are easily understood 🎉bravoo!!!
Are there any other theories that you can think of that run in parallel with this theory? I would love to hear alternatives to formulate an adjusted opinion. From what I've made of it so far, it seems like the world is meant to cater to the indivual. I currently just cant quite understand how that is more benefecial to a society than addressing each person equally. In specific, the reason I am here is because I would like to learn more about this ideology pertaining to its use in schools. I cant come to a conclusion on why the color of your skin would merrit the amount of attention or resources you recieve. Wouldnt this just negatively effect equity through the alternate perspective? I'm also genuinely curious of your thoughts on some of the things you might find this theory doesn't cover well. Very intriguing topic however, looking forward to your reply.
Arrion - I am not aware of other theories that cover the same ground, but I am unsure what you mean by parallel. You say 'it seems like the world is meant to cater to the individual'. I don't think the world is 'meant' to do anything. But I do wonder if you are being cheeky here in trying to draw me into a race argument. Treating people equally vs treating people according to their needs. Let's say I have a shop with access by a flight of stairs to what you want to browse. You and another customer come in and walk up the stairs. Neither of you buy today, but a week later you wish to return. But, during that week, you were hit by a car and both of your legs were broken. You say 'Hey, they are going up the stairs. Lift me, so I can see the goods too'. But, I reply 'That's not fair. There's one flight of stairs and they are getting up on their own. You must too. I need to treat all my customers equally'. Equity theory is NOT about what is fair. (that's a judgment we must make for ourselves) It is a theory about how people respond to feelings of fairness or unfairness. Finally, I will let you draw me in for a moment, but be warned, I shall be cautious about any further reply you give. Equity as a concept (outside of Adams' theory) is not about treating people the same for me - it's about creating conditions where people have equal access to opportunities and the good things in life. I think only a fool would consider that, in most countries, all people have that. And the dividing lines are most often according to race, gender, disability, and perceptions around sexual orientation. The color of your skin says nothing about what you are capable of, yet in every place I have visited, people seem to use it as a reason to believe one thing or another. No one wants more attention or resources due to the color of their skin. But what they do want is not to be pre-judged by it. And sometimes we need to find ways to counter those judgments. That may mean more attention and different resources as a way to balance equality of opportunity.
Me too. I did look into this and, at the time, I convinced myself that this spelling is correct. But I may have been wrong - I did not know him personally! I think if you search out original papers, Stacy is the spelling you'll find. He wrote a Citation Classic about one of hids primary papers and that spells his name Stacy: garfield.library.upenn.edu/classics1981/A1981MK45000001.pdf
@@urbanlegendsandtrivia2023 I'm not sure he wrote a book but he did write several academic papers - psycnet.apa.org/search/results?term=Adams,%20J.%20Stacy&latSearchType=a - all pf them in in the name of either J S Adams or J Stacy Adams
This idea was created in 1963 and has failed to be supported by research mainly because the theory is based on subjective measures of feelings. Therefore, anyone can claim they feel cheated and use that as a way to increase their salary etc. It is a disgraceful shame that institutions are buying this nonsense as a way to make the workplace more fair. There will always be unfairness because no large social group's biology or environment is ever going to exactly the same because people choose to associate with others that are like themselves. Even if you forced equity in society today, the entire process would eventually disintegrate due to individuals free choice to associate with whomever they wish.
Thank you. That's a cynical point of view. I'd agree that feelings are subjective - but that's their =nature and it doesn't invalidate them - nor that we become demotivated when we unfairly treated. And, maybe there will always be unfairness in society. I guess I agree with that. But I don't think that this means we should add to that unfairness. Rather, I think we should strive to treat the people around us well - and fairly. Not just because it will avoid demotivating them but because, simply, it's the right thing to do.
Great explanation and breakdown of sub-topics. Thank you!

Did you know John Stacy Adams is 99 years old in 2024?
I do now!
Perhaps oddly, I am seeing his name spelled as John Stacy Adams or John Stacey Adams on various websites.
