Quantitative simulation and qualitative analysis of theory X, Y and Z

Quantitative simulation has a significant influence on the research of management theories. Through a valid simulation, the motivation effect of the management theories can be seen directly from the simulation results. Then which theory is needed for a specific corporation and what we can do to develop the theory can be revealed. This research realizes the quantitative simulation of McGregor's XY Theory and Theory Z by agent model, quantified appraising performance and qualitative analysis. Based on the quantitative simulation result, a new qualitative simulation is realized which can help us to analyze the effect of the three theories. At last, we make a conclusion that Theory X and Y are only suited to motivate workers with a special attitude or character, while Theory Z has more power on different attitude workers. Therefore, Theory Z is more advanced than Theory XY.
