Though previous research has provided enough insights on the customers' role in VCC, relatively less research exists on employee motivation to co-create value (EMCCV) with customers. Among other reasons for such less empirical investigations, one is the unavailability of measurement scale for EMCCV. Therefore, the drive of this study is to conceptualize, develop, and validate a scale to measure EMCCV. Drawing from the expectancy theory and adapting the standard scale development procedure, this study develops EMCCV as a higher-order construct that constitutes four dimensions namely professional identity, financial motives, recognition motives, and career opportunities motives measured by 17 items. The measurement scale is developed in the context of automotive service centers; however, it has a broader application on the frontliners of all service industries and can be adapted in other service-oriented contexts. The scale is tested in a theoretical framework and has provided sound reliability, convergent, discriminant, and nomological validity. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd date: 2021 publisher: Elsevier Ltd official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85092476891&doi=10.1016%2fj.jretconser.2020.102334&partnerID=40&md5=55a25d1ab0a68f3e6f21756fb6be460f id_number: 10.1016/j.jretconser.2020.102334 full_text_status: none publication: Journal of Retailing and Consumer Services volume: 58 refereed: TRUE issn: 09696989 citation: Amin, M. and Shamim, A. and Ghazali, Z. and Khan, I.
