摘要

员工成功参与具有认知挑战性的任务是现代组织绩效的驱动力。研究表明,绩效反馈可以成为激励参与此类任务的强大管理控制工具;然而,人们对具有不同成就动机的个体如何应对却知之甚少。本文研究了成就动机和绩效反馈对参与越来越具有挑战性的任务的主要和交互影响。我们设计了一个受试者内部实验,部署了一项越来越困难的认知任务。我们发现,反馈是参与具有挑战性任务的关键决定因素,是主要影响因素,也是与成就动机相互作用的因素。与成就动机高的人相比,失败反馈更不鼓励成就动机低的人。成功反馈强烈鼓励个人参与具有挑战性的任务,并消除成就动机的差异。

The Moderating Effect of Achievement Motive on Performance Feedback in Choices of Challenging Tasks
Successful employee engagement in cognitively challenging tasks is a driving force of performance in modern organizations. Research has shown that performance feedback can be a powerful management control tool to stimulate engagement in such tasks; however, little is known about how individuals with different achievement motive respond to it. This paper examines the main and interactive effects of achievement motive and performance feedback on engagement in tasks that become progressively more challenging. We designed a within-subject experiment deploying an increasingly difficult cognitive task. We find that feedback is a key determinant of engagement in challenging tasks, as the main effect and in the interaction with achievement motive. Failure feedback discourages individuals with low achievement motive more than those with high achievement motive. Success feedback strongly encourages individuals to engage in a challenging task and levels out differences in achievement motive.

期刊介绍: The mission of the Journal of Management Accounting Research (JMAR) is to advance the theory and practice of management accounting through publication of high-quality applied and theoretical research, using any well-executed research method. JMAR serves the global community of scholars and practitioners whose work impacts or is informed by the role that accounting information plays in decision-making and performance measurement within organizations. Settings may include profit and not-for profit organizations, service, retail and manufacturing organizations and domestic, foreign, and multinational firms. JMAR furthermore seeks to advance an understanding of management accounting in its broader context, such as issues related to the interface between internal and external reporting or taxation. New theories, topical areas, and research methods, as well as original research with novel implications to improve practice and disseminate the best managerial accounting practices are encouraged.
