Adam sears is an assembly line employee with swenson motors. though adam is popular among his supervisors and colleagues, adam experiences low morale and lack of motivation. he feels frustrated that his job is restricted to fixing nuts and bolts on the car parts. he fears that he has no chances of advancing in his career as he cannot completely assemble a car. which of the following is true with regard to adam? a) adam's job has high task complexity. b) adam's job has a high span of control. c) adam's job has low role definition. d) adam's job has low task identity. e) adam's job has high task significance.

The answer is: D) Adam's job has low task identity.

Explanation:

The task identity of a job can be defined as the extent at which that job involves completing a piece of work.

In Adam´s case, to complete a piece of work refers to assembling a whole car. Adam´s job is very specific, fixing nuts and bolts. It´s the perfect example of specialization of labor. He may be very good at doing that, but doesn´t feel good about it.  

there was no passage listed but using the process of elimination i'd say it was d. the high economy would do the opposite. i don't see how low prices would affect it. high unemployment is possible but i feel d is the better answer.
