Abstract: | Beyond the policy instruments of pricing and regulating, a third motivation influences human behaviour: intrinsic motivation. Empirical research shows that individuals lower their intrinsic motivation when external controls reduce their perceived self-determination and self-evaluation ('crowding-out effect'). More leeway for action and acknowledgement by principals tends to increase intrinsic motivation ('crowding-in effect'). |
