English term or phrase: reward contingency
This study investigates differential neural activation patterns in response to reward-related feedback depending on various reward contingencies. Three types of reward contingencies were compared: a "gain" contingency (a monetary reward for correct answer/no monetary penalty for incorrect answer); a "lose" contingency (no monetary reward for correct answer/a monetary penalty for incorrect answer); and a "combined" contingency (a monetary reward for correct answer/a monetary penalty for incorrect answer). Sixteen undergraduate students were exposed to the three reward contingencies while performing a series of perceptual judgment tasks.

kontingencijska nagrada


Explanation:
"Kontingencija (engl. contingency, njem. Kontingenz) je nepredviđena okolnost, događaj ili faktor konkretne situacije koji može utjecati na događaje (primjerice menedžment, organizaciju i sl.). U organizacijskoj i menedžerskoj teoriji često se označava kao situacija o kojoj ovisi kakva će rješenja najbolje funkcionirati. Iz toga nastaje poznati kontingencijski pristup, često označen i kao situacijski pristup odnosno teorija."

Često korišten termin u menadžmentu po pitanju vodstva u institucijama.
