| Abstract: | the authors argue that, in order to enhance the rigor of "theory testing", the field studies must be complemented by laboratory experiments where the conditions stipulated by the assumptions of the theory can be systematically imposed and/or relaxed. This should help in the reconciliation of the differences found in the field of studies. The experiment reported in this paper is a first step forward filling this void in the empirical research in this area. The authors assess the impact of perceived environmental uncertainty and perceived agent effectiveness on the magnitude (total pay) and composition (salary-incentive mix) of employment compensation. |
