Incentive contracts crowd out voluntary cooperation : evidence from gift-exchange experiments

Gächter, Simon; Kaiser, Esther; Königstein, Manfred - 2024

Explicit and implicit incentives and opportunities for mutually beneficial voluntary cooperation co-exist in many contractual relationships. In a series of eight laboratory gift-exchange experiments, we show that incentive contracts can lead to crowding out of voluntary cooperation even after...

Performance in pass-fail assessments

Bertola, Giuseppe - 2024

Trading the cost of better performance off the probability that an imprecise test’s performance estimate falls short of the pass threshold, an assessee may perform above the threshold (and fear failure because of negative errors) or below it (and hope to pass because of positive errors). This...
