Match List I with List II and select the correct answer from the codes given below :

List I	List II
(a) Frederick Taylor	(1) Management by Integration and self-control
(b) Abraham Maslow	(2) Two-factor theory
(c) Chris Argyris	(3) Reward theory
(d) Frederick Herzberg	(4) Need theory

Codes :

Answer: B

The code is a-3, b-4, c-1, d-2.

Frederick Taylor: reward theory, since his differential piece-rate system pays workers who reach the standard task at a higher rate.
Abraham Maslow: need theory, the hierarchy of needs from physiological needs to self-actualisation.
Chris Argyris: integration of the individual and the organisation, the theme of his work on how formal organisations frustrate mature personalities.
Frederick Herzberg: the two-factor (motivation-hygiene) theory.

Only options B and D give Herzberg the two-factor theory, and of those only B gives Maslow need theory, so A, C and D are out.
