MONEY AND FAME: VIVIDNESS EFFECTS IN THE NATIONAL BASKETBALL ASSOCIATION

Research output: Chapters, Conference Papers, Creative and Literary WorksRGC 32 - Refereed conference paper (with host publication)peer-review

Abstract

The present paper directly tests Kerr’ (1975) s proposal by investigating whether, how and why highly visible behaviors are over-rewarded and less visible, but similarly (or more) important behaviors are under-rewarded. Findings from three studies demonstrated that scorers were rewarded with higher salaries and received more support in the NBA All-Star balloting than defenders, even though they might not necessarily make more contribution than their teammates.
