“…The relationship between rewards and work outcomes (e.g., motivation and performance) has long been a matter of debate and research in organizational settings and academia. This discussion has lately been further reinforced since employment relationships are undergoing significant changes and challenges (i.e., new types of contracts, volatile and uncertain social environment, and gig workers) and employees, apart from been solely paid, seem to care more systematically about meaningful aspects at work (e.g., relationships and social impact) while the new trends on the job market have gradually turned to an intrinsic focus on incentives and motivation ( Chen and Hsieh, 2006 ), making the use of motivational theories to understand the meaning employees give to their monetary rewards and its impact on their behavior even more relevant ( Zhang et al, 2018 ).…”

“Here’s Some Money, Your Work’s So Worthy?” A Brief Report on the Validation of the Functional Meaning of Cash Rewards Scale

In the present research, we validated a new scale developed from self-determination theory (SDT) to assess the functional meaning of cash rewards offered in the workplace. According to SDT, rewards can take on different meanings based on the way they are perceived by individuals. In a series of three studies in different socioeconomic contexts, we replicated the two-factorial structure of the scale measuring respectively workplace cash rewards’ informative and controlling meanings. In Study 1, we validated the English version of the scale by exploring and then confirming its two-factor structure with two English-speaking employee samples. We further replicated its two-factor structure in a French-speaking employee sample of employees in Study 2 and in a Greek-speaking employee sample in Study 3, allowing us to validate its French and Greek version. Results from our three studies show how distinct meanings attributed to cash rewards, i.e., informative or controlling, relate differently to autonomous and controlled forms of motivation based on SDT. These findings suggest that workplace cash rewards differently influence employees’ motivation depending on whether they are perceived as informative or controlling, thus providing empirical evidence for the theoretical and practical implications of SDT’s concept of functional meaning of cash rewards. Our research contributes to the assessment and understanding of employees’ experience of workplace cash rewards and provides empirical evidence that the concept of the functional meaning of cash rewards is a distinct concept from other money-related concepts such as subjective pay satisfaction, performance-contingent rewards, and financially contingent self-worth.

“…About emotion compensation, the article [9] constructed the land expropriation compensation RDEU evolutionary game model, which could be used to study the influence of the emotions of farmers and local governments on game strategies. The research in [15] enriched the knowledge about how laypeople make compensation decisions for emotional losses. The authors of article [16] implemented the adaptive sub-layer compensation based facial emotions recognition method for human emotions recognition with various features extraction mechanism.…”

The data feature set of emotion recognition based on complex network has the characteristics of complex redundant information, difficult recognition and lost data, so it will cause great interference to the emotion feature of speech or image recognition. In order to solve the above problems, this paper studies the multi-modal emotion recognition algorithm based on emotion element compensation in the background of streaming media communication in edge network. Firstly, an edge streaming media network is designed to transfer the traditional server-centric transmission tasks to edge nodes. The architecture can transform complex network problems into edge nodes and user side problems. Secondly, the multi-modal parallel training is realized by using the cooperative combination of weights equalization, and the reasoning of nonlinear mapping is mapped to a better emotional data fusion relationship. Then, from the point of view of non-linearity and uncertainty of different types of emotional data samples in the training subset, emotional recognition data compensation evolves into emotional element compensation, which is convenient for qualitative analysis and optimal decision-making. Finally, the simulation results show that the proposed multi-modal emotion recognition algorithm can improve the recognition rate by 3.5%, save the average response time by 5.7% and save the average number of iterations per unit time by 1.35 times.

A Dragging-Down Effect: Consumer Decisions in Response to Price Increases

Four studies, across a range of domains, all find evidence of a dragging-down effect in which consumers purchase fewer units of a product when a discount applies to a larger (vs. smaller) number of units. In each case, and in contrast to basic economic principles, this purchasing pattern leads consumers to purchase more units of the same item when they are sold for a higher per-unit price. Results show that consumers adopt the maximum discounted quantity as their purchase quantity only if that quantity falls within an acceptable range relative to the consumer’s purchasing preferences. Mediation analyses reveal that the perceived acceptability of a given quantity as the final purchase quantity explains the importance of this numeric cue in causing the observed pattern. Implications of the research for consumers, marketers, and policy-makers are discussed.
