Bob Nelson is the author of numerous books including 1001 Ways to Reward Employees, and offers "Seven Simple Insights for Motivating Your Employees" on his web site: http://www.nelson-motivation.com/column_07.html. That might be a good place to start.
Whilst the aim of budgets is not to motivate, there seems to be a link to staff motivation which springs from budget related issues. For instance, an organisation might provide a reward scheme for the sole purpose of lifting morale - staff motivation - but a scheme such as this would be impossible to implement if the budget does not allow for it. In that case, what led to staff motivation is actually directly or indirectly related to budget. Roland A. (I've got an assignment on this actually!)

In my experience it's in the hope of learning to control staff without actually studying their own staff's personal motivation and behaviour. I've never actually noticed these studies working very well. It certainly gets them out of the office and off to a seminar and decent lunch - with drinks afterwards, given luck - and gives the business owners the impression management is taking the job seriously, but results among staff tend to be minimal. But then, staff get to be rid of the manager for a day or so, which frequently raises morale no end. The best managers communicate with and empathise with their staff. I always found that works.
External motivation, Social pressure, and self motivation.
Effective vertical communication and employee satisfaction tends to go hand in hand. Subordinates feel respected by management, and managers should in turn feel respected by their staff. These higher levels of job satisfaction would increase the worker's drive to succeed and thus their motivation.
