Martina uses techniques based on the behavior and age group of the students.

Explanation:

The principle of Expectancy Theory states that an individual's behavior and actions are motivated by specific results or consequences. Here, Martina is effective with the elementary and middle school orchestras because she uses techniques based on the behavior and age group of the students. Both of these groups seem motivated to play for her because she makes the students feel like they are good at it. Her leadership style for the middle schooners were more of using techniques like rewarding, enhancing and making them compete.
