Hello,
My name is Carlton Fong, and I am currently conducting a research synthesis on the effects of negative feedback on intrinsic motivation with Dr. Erika Patall of the University of Texas at Austin. I am interested in any and all studies that report a relationship between negative feedback and any intrinsic motivation measure (interest, enjoyment, time spent on task, etc.) or examine differences in receiving negative feedback and positive feedback (praise) or no valence feedback (neutral) on intrinsic motivation. Note that I would be interested in studies that incorporated negative feedback even if it was not the central focus of the study (e.g., it was examined primarily as a moderator) as long as its effect on intrinsic motivation can be derived.
While it is quite easy to locate published studies, unpublished reports are much more difficult to find. If you have or know of any such studies and are willing to share them, I would very much appreciate hearing from you. These types of documents include conference presentations, unpublished dissertations, or in press manuscripts.
We welcome any unpublished data (e.g., technical reports, raw data, unpublished dissertations/theses) that report a relationship between negative feedback and intrinsic motivation or compare valence feedback types on intrinsic motivation.
For electronic copies, please send them to carlfong@gmail.com. If you do not have an electronic copy of these materials and would like to be reimbursed for postage, please include a bill for postage and copying costs with your correspondence.
Paper materials may be sent to:

Austin, TX 78712-0383
Although we can offer little more than our gratitude for your assistance, we will formally cite all viable data we receive in a comprehensive meta-analysis that is quickly nearing completion.
Any information that you may be able to provide will be quite helpful for this study. I will send you a copy of our final report if you respond.
Thank you so much,
Carlton Fong
