Abstract

Many social and financial problems have reflected the importance of cultivating a healthy habit to perform good behaviors when humans are little in terms of receiving rewards. A longitudinal study for reward system will be presented in this paper through the concept of the incentive theory of motivation and expectancy theory. Humans would be motivated by the outside reinforcement. Two participants theoretically are selected to observe how their behaviors are impacted as changes in rewards, from first grade until they work in a company. Parents can utilize reward system to help their children to complete homework and obtain good grades, similarly, managers can utilize reward system to help their employees to increase their efficiency and productivity. Based on many previous investigations and analysis, a prolong research and discussion are made to explore the relationship exists between rewards and children/employees’ performances, and list the potential explanations, implications, limitations, and future directions.
