Public Participation and Institutional Fit: A Social–Psychological Perspective (2013, background): “For example, in a recent cross-cultural field experiment, Vollan (2008) found that residents of Karas, Namibia, where there is a long history of successful self-governance and strong norms of trust and reciprocity, successfully managed a shared resource when they voted on rules and could not use…”
A systematic literature review of entrepreneurial ecosystems in advanced and emerging economies (2020, background): “According to the collective governance literature, collective benefits cannot be obtained through short-term economic incentives because such an approach may lead to extrusion of common goods motivations (Vollan 2008).”
When payments for environmental services will work for conservation (2013, background): “” Why are we then in conservation strategy papers by ecological economists always confronted unilaterally with the PES “crowding-out” menace? It seems “crowding-out” is more likely when intrinsic motives and social norms are strong (Vollan 2008).”
Motivation crowding by economic incentives in conservation policy: A review of the empirical evidence (2015, background): “Research indicates that positive and negative incentives may have distinct consequences in terms of motivation crowding if, for instance, positive incentives are perceived as supportive while negative ones are perceived as controlling (Frey and Stutzer, 2008; Vollan, 2008).”
Prosocial behavior and incentives: Evidence from field experiments in rural Mexico and Tanzania (2012, background): “that has become popular in recent years of playing experimental games in rural areas of developing countries framed around locally relevant social dilemmas (e.g. Cardenas et al., 2000; Rustagi et al., 2010; Vollan, 2008).”
The challenge of understanding decisions in experimental studies of common pool resource governance (2011, background): “Vollan (2008) conducted a framed field experiment inNamibia and SouthAfrica and found that the crowding-out effect depended on three factors: how controlling versus supportive was the external intervention, the level of trust within a social group, and the level of self-determination within the…”
