Incremental effects of reward on experienced performance pressure: positive outcomes for intrinsic interest and creativity
Abstract
Two field studies and a laboratory study examined the influence of reward for high performance on experienced performance pressure, intrinsic interest and creativity. Study 1 found that employees' expected reward for high performance was positively related to performance pressure which, in turn, was positively associated with the employees' interest in their jobs. Study 2 replicated this finding and showed that intrinsic interest, produced by performance pressure, was positively related to supervisors' ratings of creative performance. Study 3 found that college students' receipt of reward for high performance increased their experienced performance pressure which, in turn, was positively related to intrinsic interest and creativity.

“Alternative meta-analyses assert that reward for enjoyable tasks either decreases intrinsic task interest ( Deci et al., 1999 ) or has variable effects depending on the nature of the reward contingency (Cameron & Pierce, 2002; Eisenberger, Pierce, et al., 1999).”

“Some researchers maintain that reward reduces the recipient’s intrinsic interest and creativity, owing to: (a) a perception that task performance is motivated by the reward to the exclusion of the task itself (the overjustification effect ( Lepper, Greene, & Nisbett, 1973 ), (b) a loss of perceived self-determination…”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
