摘要

在本文中，我们研究了在两个参与者（可能是不对称的）之间的多维竞争中，绩效捆绑可作为促进努力供给的有效工具的情况。我们发现，绩效捆绑除了会产生有利的成本节约效应（这种效应会随着参与者之间的不对称而减弱）外，还会产生适得其反的不平衡效应（这种效应会随着不对称的加剧而增强）。因此，只有当参赛者足够对称时，成绩捆绑（纯粹或部分）才是可取的。否则，一组单独的竞赛才是最优的。我们的模型为分析多维竞赛环境中的激励方案提供了一个新视角。

Performance bundling in multi-dimensional competitions

In this paper, we investigate circumstances in which performance bundling can be used as an effective instrument to foster effort supply in multi-dimensional competitions between two (possibly asymmetric) players. We find that besides a beneficial cost-saving effect that is diminishing with the asymmetry across players, performance bundling can cause a counterproductive unbalancing effect, which intensifies with this asymmetry. Thus, performance bundling (pure or partial) is desirable only if the players are sufficiently symmetric. Otherwise, a set of separate contests is optimal. Our model provides a new perspective for analyzing incentive schemes in contest environments that involve competitions in multiple dimensions.

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.
