(b) Motivation and Personality (1954) is by Abraham H. Maslow, the book in which he set out the hierarchy of needs. So (b) → (iv).
(c) The Motivation to Work (1959) is by Frederick Herzberg (with Mausner and Snyderman), presenting the two-factor (motivation–hygiene) theory. So (c) → (ii).
(d) Personality and Organisation (1957) is by Chris Argyris, who described the conflict between a mature personality and the demands of formal organisation (immaturity–maturity theory). So (d) → (i).
The matching is (a)-(iii), (b)-(iv), (c)-(ii), (d)-(i), i.e. the code (iii) (iv) (ii) (i).
