Hi, your probably well on your way for your book chapter by now, but here is a link to an article http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/S0361-3682(01)00031-9 to a study demonstrating the negative effects of performance incentive on intrinsic motivation in the workplace. Good luck. Regards, u3094046 --B Laurie (discuss • contribs) 06:09, 18 October 2016 (UTC)

Hi, your topic looks really interesting and it sounds like there'll be a lot of information out there. I found an interesting article written by a faculty member at Columbia University, that discusses whether money really motivates us to work, and also compares extrinsic and intrinsic motivations. Here it is: https://hbr.org/2013/04/does-money-really-affect-motiv I also thought that it might be interesting to look at what types of employments are considered to be the most motivating and see whether there's any correlation between higher paid work, and greater motivation? You could also include a case study that would illustrate your findings, such as "Frank is a highly paid business man; he is part of a large company that pays him over $300,000 per year to travel between different cities and seek out new financial partners. However, Frank has lately started to feel depressed. He is finding it increasingly difficult to look forward to his business trips, and doesn't enjoy the anticipation of his paycheck every fortnight, anymore. What is wrong with Frank?". That's just an example of what I think you might find - higher money doesn't necessarily = greater motivation in the long term. Anyway, hope that gives you some ideas :) --U3083662 (discuss • contribs) 03:04, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

Hey, I found another article for you to potentially use. It focuses on Herzberg's two factor theory in the Australian healthcare industry. http://zh9bf5sp6t.search.serialssolutions.com/?ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&ctx_enc=info%3Aofi%2Fenc%3AUTF-8&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fsummon.serialssolutions.com&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&rft.genre=article&rft.atitle=Motivating+medicine%3A+Why+money+is+not+enough&rft.jtitle=Journal+of+Paediatrics+and+Child+Health&rft.au=Dalton%2C+Sarah&rft.date=2010-04-01&rft.issn=1034-4810&rft.eissn=1440-1754&rft.volume=46&rft.issue=4&rft.spage=142&rft.epage=143&rft_id=info:doi/10.1111%2Fj.1440-1754.2009.01651.x&rft.externalDBID=n%2Fa&rft.externalDocID=10_1111_j_1440_1754_2009_01651_x&paramdict=en-US (DOI:10.1111/j.1440-1754.2009.01651.x)--CeeJay95 (discuss • contribs) 00:01, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

Hey, I have attached two articles that relate to Employee motivation and money. The first looks at the relationship with the Big five personality measurement and the second uses a two factor theory and incorporates self-regulatory processes, hopefully they are of assistance. Best of luck with the rest of your chapter :) https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Paul_Story/publication/274080888_The_Big_Five_and_Achievement_Motivation_Exploring_the_Relationship_between_Personality_and_a_Two-Factor_Model_of_Motivation/links/569d0c8d08ae27633ac97ebc.pdf http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0191886908004042--U3090066 (discuss • contribs) 17:57, 14 October 2016 (UTC)

Hi, the TedTalk by Dan Pink on motivation may be worthwhile linking into your chapter https://www.ted.com/talks/dan_pink_on_motivation#t-4539--U109993 (discuss • contribs) 02:37, 16 October 2016 (UTC)

Heading casing
Hi there! you have some great starting topic for your chapter, it sounds really interesting!! I have some suggestions for your unfinished sections such as "The role of money in career choice" you could use some classic and present examples, such as Kim Kardashian, or even Donald trump! They are some big money moguls. Also just watch some of your spelling, and that it i'snt American spelling :) Goodluck!!!--U3100166 (discuss • contribs) 13:26, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
