Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper employs a field experiment to investigate in which information environment team-based incentives work better. The experiment was conducted in two spinning factories in Henan, China. We focus on workers who were doing the same individualistic task but still were paid according to team performances. For about three months, we have given three different types of performance feedback, baseline, intra-team, and inter-team feedbacks. We find that workers’ productivity was highest with the intra-team feedback and lowest with the baseline feedback, which suggests that peer pressure and group status concern are of importance in making team incentives work.

基于团队激励的绩效反馈:中国工厂的实地实验

摘要:本文采用实地实验的方法，探讨在何种信息环境下基于团队的激励更有效。实验在中国河南的两家纺纱厂进行。我们关注的是那些做着同样的个人任务，但仍然根据团队表现获得报酬的员工。在大约三个月的时间里，我们给出了三种不同类型的绩效反馈:基线反馈、团队内部反馈和团队间反馈。我们发现，员工的生产力在团队内部反馈中最高，在基线反馈中最低，这表明同伴压力和群体地位关注在团队激励中起着重要作用。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
