It should be noted that WHO guidelines on application of incentive schemes in health care acknowledges that financial incentives alone are not sufficient to retain and motivate staff [ 24].
As a result, many companies are increasingly interested in the application of economic incentives at least as supplements or reinforcements of environmental standards.
Second, assuming that reported intrinsic motives are real and not a product of social desirability bias, financial incentives may dilute the impact of intrinsic incentives via a crowding-out effect, shifting users' motives for sharing e-commerce content from intrinsic reasons (e.g., enjoyment) toward extrinsic ones with the application of financial incentives (e.g., a discount).
The application of financial incentives to support changes in healthcare has often targeted micro levels, such as general practitioners, physicians and patients e.g. [ 39, 40].
Incentives implemented to increase EmOC staff motivation included flexibility in HR management and supervision, improvements in working conditions, institutionalization of a culture of accountability, application of financial incentives and better career planning [ 33, 34, 54, 59, 60].
This outcome, which is relatively expected, arises from the combined application of the incentive-compatibility constraint and the single-crossing property.
(ii) The fact that in the optimal allocation the extreme values of consumption and medical expenditure are determined, respectively, by the lowest and the highest concern for health is a consequence of the combined application of the incentive-compatible constraint and the single-crossing property.
For instance, application of the incentive go/no-go task on children with autism spectrum disorder will help to obtain deeper insights into the nature of a hypothesized hyporesponsivity to social reinforcement in this patient group [ 16].
Its premises are rooted in what might be called a neoliberal governmentality – the idea that through the correct application of market-based incentives, people can be gradually moulded into neoliberal subjects.
We argue that the application of properly designed incentives, the hallmark of Experimental Economics, provides a high degree of experimental control, leading to internal validity and incentive compatibility.
