【摘要】We conduct a field experiment to investigate whether and how different forms of monetary gifts influence workers' performance in the workplace. Undergraduate students are hired for a temporary research assistant job at a Chinese university. At the end of the pre-announced task, they are surprised with a monetary gift and decide whether to help with some additional work under a less appealing pay scheme. We find that a more thoughtful presentation of the gift cash enclosed in a red envelope, in general, outperforms cash only by increasing workers' overall performance and willingness to help and to trade off a high quality of work for quantity. Workers are more likely to perceive the thoughtful gift as the employer's appreciation, which counteracts the negative income effect due to reference dependence.
