SORU:

How is the term "inequity" in Equity Theory defined?


CEVAP:

Adams (1963) developed Equity theory based on perceived inequity that individuals experience. According to him, any exchange between two people includes comparison and possible feeling of inequity at least for one party. Adams defined inequity as; “Inequity exists for Person whenever he perceives that the ratio of his outcomes to inputs and the ratio of Other’s outcomes to Other’s inputs are unequal. This may happen either (a) when he and Other are in a direct exchange relationship or (b) when both are in an exchange relationship with a third party and Person compares himself to Other (p. 424)”. The Other should be similar to the Person in terms of demographics, positions and other credentials to make a relevant comparison.
