SEMAINE D'ÉTUDE SUR LE ROLE DE L ANALYSE ECONOMETRIOUE ETC. 1012 Average "Huctity "1 Yon Potential- we hypothesize that average productivity increases with in creases in P (and presumably increase in spatial decentraliza tion)? Would this increase of average productivity in the early stage be at an increasing rate (curve BB) or decreasing rate (curve AA)? If it is at an increasing rate, can it be presumed to reach a point where it is at a constant rate (point X, curve BB) and then a decreasing rate with still greater values for P (and presumably still higher degrees of spatial decentral- ization)? Further, at some later point, at a relatively high value for P (and presumably a relatively high degree of spatial decentralization), can average productivity be posited to fall off fas in curve * °° ™ 3 () For some relevant empirical findings, See T. Tomexovic,* Level of Knowledge of Requirements as a Motivational Factor in the Work Situation, « Human Relations », Vol. 15, No. 3, 1962, pp. 197-216; J.R.P. FRENCH, Jr, J. ISRAEL and DAGFINN Âs, An Experiment on Participation in a Nor- wegian Factory, « Human Relations », Vol. 13, No. 1, February 1960, pp. 3-19. It is recognized of course that other variables are relevant. For example, on the effect of personality upon the relation between participation in decision making and productivity, see Victor H. Vroom, Some Perso- nality Determinants of the Effects of Participation, « The Journal of Ab- normal and Social Psychology, Vol. 59, November, 1959, pp. 322-327. Also see RaLpH E.
