Can money enhance intrinsic motivation? A test of the content-consequence hypothesis.
Abstract
This article contains two conceptual replications of an experiment designed to test the hypothesis that when monetary payments are inherent to the task's content their presence (vs. absence) increases intrinsic motivation, whereas when they constitute the task's exogenous consequence their presence (vs. absence) decreases intrinsic motivation toward the task. The data of both experiments strongly supported the research hypothesis. The findings were interpreted as consistent with the assumption that intrinsic motivation ensues whenever the actor causally attributes his performance of the task to the task's content and inconsistent with the proposal that intrinsic motivation be identified with internal (or self-) attributions and extrinsic motivation with attributions to the external environment.

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.
