“The purpose of this study was to explore an alternative relationship between job autonomy
and employee outcomes. In contrast to the dominating view that perceived job autonomy
leads to increased levels of intrinsic motivation and in turn work performance, we
developed a hypothesis proposing that intrinsic motivation moderates the relationship
between perceived job autonomy and work performance using Job-Characteristics model
and Self-Determination Theory. Perceived job autonomy may be less positively related to
work performance among employees with lower levels of intrinsic motivation. Two cross-
sectional surveys among 302 employees from different Norwegian service organizations
showed that the relationship between perceived job autonomy and both self-reported and
linemanager rated work quality was moderated by intrinsic motivation. The form of the
moderation, by using an hierarchical regression moderation, revealed a positive relationship
only for employees high in intrinsic motivation in both studies. Implications for practice and
directions for future research are discussed….. If the relationship between job autonomy
and work performance is dependent on employees’ levels of intrinsic motivation, attention
at the individual level seems warranted. First, in terms of recruitment practices, focus
should be directed at obtaining employees with the potential of finding interest, meaning
