A quick background on me. I am a mid level software engineer at a mid sized and growing software company (200+ engineers)

I want to help our company's development department by encouraging the idea of craftsmanship and pride amongst the other engineers.

My plan to do this is through behavior manipulation by applying a new external attribution. I am currently writing a paper on this for my company but I can only find negative examples of external attribution.

My question is, is there any research that anyone can point me toward that validates changing behavior through external attribution. (I've already gone through the stanford experiment)
