The scenario centers on Diego feeling that his extra effort cannot translate into better performance because the environment places constraints. This situation maps most directly to the expectancy component of Vroom's expectancy theory, which is the belief that effort will lead to performance.
Option 1: high expectancy. This would imply Diego believes that putting in more effort will reliably improve performance. The stem contradicts that by stating environment limits performance despite effort, so this option mischaracterizes his perception.
Option 2: low valency. Valence concerns how much the individual values the outcome of performance (the reward or consequence). The description focuses on the link between effort and performance, not the subjective value of the outcome itself, so valence is not the central issue here.
Option 3: low expectancy. This matches the idea that external barriers in the environment disrupt the link between effort and performance, i.e., difficulty in translating effort into higher performance despite working hard.
Option 4: high valency. Valence being high would indicate a strong value placed on the outcome, which does not address whether effort leads to performance. It’s not addressing the perceived efficacy of effort in influencing performance.
Option 5: low instrumentality. Instrumentality is about the perceived link between performance and outcomes (rewards). The prompt emphasizes environment limits performance regardless of effort, rather than doubts about whether good performance yields rewards, so instrumentality is not the focal issue here.
