Arrange Elton Mayo's experiments in a chronological sequence. Select the correct answer from the codes given below :

(i) First Inquiry
(ii) Human Attitudes and Sentiments
(iii) The Great Illumination
(iv) Absenteeism in the Industries
(v) Social organisation
Codes :

  • A.(i), (iv), (v), (iii) and (ii)
  • B.(i), (iii), (iv), (ii) and (v)
  • C.(i), (iii), (ii), (v) and (iv)
  • D.(i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v)

Answer: C

The keyed chronological order of Elton Mayo's experiments is (i), (iii), (ii), (v) and (iv).

The sequence the key follows starts with the first inquiry, then the great illumination study, then the study of human attitudes and sentiments, then social organisation, and ends with absenteeism in the industries.

The other three codes put absenteeism, social organisation or the illumination study at different positions, so they do not match the order the key follows. The option that simply lists (i) to (v) in numerical order is wrong because the items in the question were given out of sequence on purpose.
