Yes, I believe it's well understood in the social sciences that when you give people an extrinsic reward for some activity, it drastically reduces any intrinsic rewards they were getting for it. Some weird quirk of human psychology.

You can get people to do things out of the goodness of their heart, or you can pay them to do things, but it's really hard to do both at the same time.
