STOGIs have a stronger relationship with organizational commitment and LTOGIs have a stronger relationship with psychological ownership.Originality/valueThe value of this research lies in exploring the differential effects of short-and long-term group incentives, which provides new insight into the theory of group incentives and practical implications for their effective utilization.
