Abstract
This study employs federal administrative data derived from states' Child Support Enforcement programs to explore the effectiveness of these two kinds of incentives in shaping program outcomes. Controlling for other substantive administrative practices, and some key state features, the authors find that these two types of incentives do appear to have had significant effects upon program achievements and outcomes, outcomes that are consistent with theory and policy intent.
