This study analyzed their perceptions about the statements in thequestionaire. The data were analized by partial least square (PLS) withSmart PLS Version 2.0. The findings showed empirical evidence of theimpact of clear and measurable goals on qualitative and quantitativeperformance, and the impact of performance measurement indicatorson quantitative and qualitative performance are consistent withgoalsetting theory, but the impact of decentralization on the quantitativeand qualitative performance is inconsistent with goal setting theory.The results show that the impact of incentives on the quantitative andqualitative performance isinconsistent with agency theory.
