DP12836支付本地监控性能?福利分析在乌干达小学老师出席
达到激励代理人的双重目标性能和提供信息为达成计划的目的,公共部门组织往往依赖于昂贵的验证由当地监控报告。获得智慧,附加fi财政激励措施,这些报告将导致勾结,并削弱这两个目标。然而,简单的讨价还价的逻辑表明,相反:支付本地监控性能可以鼓励所期望的行为和改进信息。探讨这个问题,我们进行了一项随机对照试验在乌干达小学,探索了如何设计激励教师由校长基于局部监测。实验随机变化头教师老师出席的报告是否与教师奖金。We find that local monitoring on its own is ineffective at improving teacher attendance. However, combining local monitoring with fi nancial incentives leads to both an increase in teacher attendance (by 8 percentage points) and an improvement in the quality of information. We also observe substantial gains in pupil attainment, driven primarily by a reduction in dropouts. By placing a fi nancial value on these enrollment gains, we demonstrate that pay for locally monitored performance passes both welfare and fi scal sustainability tests.
