| Tiivistelmä: | This paper reports the results of an experiment examining how incentive-based compensation contracts compare to flat-wage compensation contracts in motivating individual learning and performance. A multiperiod cognitive task where the accounting system generates information that has both contracting role and belief-revision role is used. The results suggest that incentives enhance performance and the rate of improvement in performance by increasing both: 1. the amount of time participants devoted to the task, and 2. participants' analysis and use of information. |
