A literature overview on intrinsic motivation and extrinsic incentives leads us to the hypothesis that Greek journalists working for local newspapers are motivated more by intrinsic reasons than by extrinsic incentives. The second part of the paper discusses empirical evidence from data collected through a national survey. Results show that for most of the journalists in local newspapers security and personal relation issues are more important than bonus and promotion rules. © Walter de Gruyter Sociolinguistics nationallicence Gender studies nationallicence Social theory nationallicence motivation nationallicence journalists nationallicence newspapers nationallicence productivity nationallicence Tsourvakas George aut Veglis Andreas aut Zotos Yiorgos aut Communications Walter de Gruyter 29/4(2004-12-01), 515-523 0341-2059 29:4<515 2004 29 comm https://doi.org/10.1515/comm.2004.29.4.515 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 research article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1515/comm.2004.29.4.515 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Tsourvakas George aut NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Veglis Andreas aut NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Zotos Yiorgos aut NATIONALLICENCE 773 0- Communications Walter de Gruyter 29/4(2004-12-01), 515-523 0341-2059 29:4<515 2004 29 comm CC0 http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0 nationallicence BK010053 XK010053 XK010000 NATIONALLICENCE NATIONALLICENCE NL-gruyter
