经济学家通常认为,货币激励会改善业绩,而心理学家则声称,情况可能恰恰相反。我们提出并讨论了一组实验,旨在检验这些相反的主张。我们发现,货币补偿对绩效的影响不是单调的。在提供资金的治疗中,金额越大,效果越好。然而,提供金钱并不总是带来改善:提供金钱奖励的受试者比没有得到补偿的受试者表现更差。讨论了对结果的几种可能的解释。
Economists usually assume that monetary incentives improve performance, and psychologists claim that the opposite may happen. We present and discuss a set of experiments designed to test these contrasting claims.We found that the effect of monetary compensation on performance was not monotonic. In the treatments in which money was offered, a larger amount yielded a higher performance. However, offering money did not always produce an improvement: subjects who were offered monetary incentives performed more poorly than those who were offered no compensation. Several possible interpretations of the results are discussed.
