Abstract

This study investigated the relationship between leader contingent and non-contingent reward and punishment behaviors and employee performance and attitudes. Performance-contingent reward behavior was found to affect subordinate performance, satisfaction, and attraction to the supervisor, particularly among high performers. Non-contingent reward behavior was also associated with employee satisfaction and attraction, but primarily among low performers. The relationship between both contingent and non-contingent punishment behaviors and employee performance and attitudes were generally negative.
