尽管大量的实证研究的有害影响的外部激励(例如,金钱,比赛奖品等)。我们的社会仍然依赖外在的诱因来激励人。为了更好地理解这种理论与实践差距背后的原因,本研究考察了人们对外部激励如何影响接受者内在动机的信念。研究人员向参与者介绍了一个先前的实验,该实验证明了破坏效应,并要求参与者对实验结果进行预测。研究结果表明,大多数参与者坚定地,但错误地,相信奖励对内在动机的有益影响,并以更大的信心这样做。这种不准确的信念动机可能会发挥作用,在当前,经常使用的外在激励在我们的社会,目前的研究表明,针对利益相关者的信念在干预研究的重要性。(PsycInfo数据库记录(c)2020阿帕,保留所有权利)
Despite the voluminous empirical research on the harmful effects of extrinsic incentives (eg, money, competition prizes, etc.) on people’s intrinsic motivation (“undermining effect”), our society is still reliant upon the use of extrinsic incentives to motivate people. To better understand the reason underlying this theory–practice gap, the current study examined people’s beliefs about how extrinsic incentives influence recipients’ intrinsic motivation. Participants were presented with a description of a previous experiment that demonstrated the undermining effect, and were asked to make a prediction about the results of the experiment. The findings showed that the majority of participants firmly, but wrongly, believed in the beneficial effects of reward on intrinsic motivation and did so with greater confidence. This inaccurate belief about motivation may play a role in the current, frequent use of extrinsic incentives in our society, and the current study suggests the importance of targeting stakeholders’ beliefs in intervention research.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2020 APA, all rights reserved)
