Zusammenfassung
In this paper, we introduce a scale for measuring the extrinsic motivation of crowd workers. The new questionnaire is strongly based on the Work Extrinsic Intrinsic Motivation Scale (WEIMS) [17] and theoretically follows the Self-Determination Theory (SDT) of motivation. The questionnaire has been applied and validated in a crowdsourcing micro-task platform. This instrument can be used for studying the dynamics of extrinsic motivation by taking into account individual differences and provide meaningful insights which will help to design a proper incentives framework for each crowd worker that eventually leads to a better performance, an increased well-being, and higher overall quality.
