Abstract/Summary

This thesis paper was focused on getting responses from Business Management students in the De La Salle – University College of Business upon mentioning the different incentives. A survey questionnaire was prepared for the students, as the survey form contains two situations, namely about incentives for attending a seminar/lecture and about the Dress Code Policy; different proposed sets of positive and negative incentives were given as choices for the respondents to answer. After surveying eighty students, the results from the survey showed students responding differently to the provided positive and negative incentives in the survey form. Although most students prefer to get the biggest amount of bonus incentives possible, it’s only to the extent of exerting as little effort as possible. If the required effort level is too great, most students are willing to go for the lesser amount of bonus incentives. As for penalties and punishments as negative incentives, there's a showing of tolerance for small-amounted fines and verbal punishments, but not warnings and reprimands.
