This project involves a series of experiments to study the effects of monetary incentives on the performance of a mental arithmetic "production" task. The nature of the contingencies will be varied to create an experimental design comparing the effects of large, medium, and small monetary payoffs in piece rate, variable ratio, quota, and tournament incentive schemes, including flat hourly wage conditions. To a much greater extent than in previous research, we will measure the effects of incentive scheme contingency and size of monetary award on the fine-grained structure of behavior. It is expected that the results of this systematic study will lead to well-calibrated tasks which can be used in other experimental studies of incentive effects which should yield to greater generalizability of research findings.

该项目涉及一系列实验，以研究货币激励措施对精神算术“生产”任务表现的影响。 突发事件的性质将有所不同，以创建实验设计，以比较大型，中和小额货币收益的效果，以零件率，可变比率，配额和锦标赛激励方案（包括平坦的小时工资条件）进行比较。 在更大的程度上，我们将衡量激励方案意外事件和货币奖励对行为良好结构的影响。 可以预期，这项系统研究的结果将导致精心校准的任务，这些任务可用于激励效应的其他实验研究，这应该可以使研究结果的更广泛性。
