The Effects of Pay Incentives on Teacher Absenteeism
研究纽约某学区薪酬激励对教师缺勤的影响，发现激励计划使教师缺勤显著减少，全勤率从8%升至34%，但病假减少的同时个人假使用增加。
This study examines the effects of pay incentives on teacher absence in one New York district. Paired sample t-tests of 292 teachers revealed that teacher absence declined significantly and perfect attendance rose from 8 percent to 34 percent during the first year of an attendance incentive plan. The study also revealed that the significant reduction in sick leave was accompanied by a significant increase in the use of personal days. The implications of these findings for practice and future research are discussed.
