>> I honestly think this keeps things more productive > So you're just going to ignore the fact that the article notes studies proving the opposite? I went back and reread the article. It's just one study as far as I know. This one involving 170 something people in the US: http://psycnet.apa.org/journals/psp/72/4/775/ http://psycnet.apa.org/journals/psp/72/4/775/ How was it done ? What was the control group ? How did they choose the members ? Are these some college students as in so many psychological studies ? Does it compare to real world companies hiring people that match the company culture and are professional enough to cooperate in most conditions ? The more I think about it the more it fels very fluffy and hard to take for granted.
