Overview: From the executive summary: ‘The paper examines the question: Which reward structure (cooperative or competitive) has the best effects on team performance and under what circumstances? Specifically, a cooperative reward structure is predicted to increase performance on means-interdependent tasks, while a competitive reward structure is predicted to increase performance on means-independent tasks. Moreover, a cooperative reward structure was shown to particularly benefit performance when team members were highly extroverted or highly agreeable.’
