We study how help can be fostered by means of a team bonus in the presence of rank-order tournaments. In a simple model we combine elements of relative rewards and a team bonus and study their effect on effort, help and sabotage. Quite intuitively the theoretical analysis suggests that team...

This study is directly motivated by the results of Eckartz et al (2012). Subjects exerted suprisingly high efforts irrespectively of how they were compensated. This paper discusses a number of potential explanations and then it will focus on two of them: first, subjects might exert effort simply...

Paying a fixed amount of money to participants in choice-based conjoint (CBC) studies is the industry standard. Recently, Ding (2007) has shown that a lottery incentive scheme outperformed a fixed fee incentive scheme when predicting out-of-sample choices. We achieve two research goals in the...
