How Colleagues Can Support Each Other's Needs and Motivation: An Intervention on Employee Work Motivation (2018, methodology): “In contrast, controlled motivation has not been found to be highly related to any of these outcomes, and may even have negative implications for employee performance and well-being (see Chemolli, Gagn e, & Koestner, 2012; Gagn e et al., 2015).”
The influences of perceived organizational support and motivation on self-initiated expatriates’ organizational and community embeddedness (2017, result): “This result is in line with other researchers’ findings that employees who are autonomously motivated to work demonstrated higher level of attachment to their organizations such as affective commitment (e.g., Gagné et al., 2015).”
Using Bifactor Exploratory Structural Equation Modeling to Test for a Continuum Structure of Motivation (2018, methodology): “In the work domain, external regulation can be further subdivided according to whether the source of the external pressure to enact the target behavior is material or social (Gagné et al., 2015).”
Motivation profiles at work: A self-determination theory approach (2016, methodology): “In each sample, we contrasted a classical confirmatory factor analytic (CFA) model, in which each of the six MWMS factors was defined on the basis of it's a priori items, with no cross-loading allowed between items and non-target factors, with an exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM; Aspar”
Evidence of a continuum structure of academic self-determination: A two-study test using a bifactor-ESEM representation of academic motivation (2017, methodology): “Conducting a Rasch (1960) analysis, Chemolli and Gagné (2014) failed to find support for the continuum structure of motivation either in the academic (using the AMS) or the work domain (using the Multidimensional Work Motivation Scale; Gagné et al., 2015).”
Different motivations for knowledge sharing and hiding: The role of motivating work design (2019, methodology): “…framework has been used in research focusing on different behaviors at different levels of analysis (Vallerand, 1997), including the motivation for a whole job (Gagné et al., 2015) to the motivation towards specific work tasks (Fernet, 2011) and motivation at a daily level (Gagné et al., 2003).”

(2019, background): “Intrinsic motivation has been related to many behaviors that are important for successors to engage in, including putting in high levels of effort into their work, being adaptable and proactive, and being more resilient in the face of challenges (Gagné, 2014; Gagné et al., 2015; Ryan & Deci, 2017), ”
