This study aims to determine the potential impact of institutional incentives on the job performance and research ability performance of some university teachers in China. A total of 563 teachers and managers from 50 universities in northern and southern China were surveyed, with 10 co participants. A survey and in-depth interviews were conducted from March to May 2023. A hybrid research method based on explanatory sequence design was used to describe and analyze the reactions of these universities from aspects such as institutional incentives, job performance, and research ability performance. Researchers analyzed the research abilities and achievements of teachers under current institutional incentives and correlated their teaching performance with job performance and research ability performance. The research results indicate that institutional incentives for participating in universities have a potential impact on the job performance and research ability performance of Chinese university teachers. It can be concluded that, in addition to promotion incentives, respondents' perceptions of potential factors that affect compensation, environment, achievement, and innovation incentives, as well as their research abilities and job performance, are also significantly correlated. There is a significant relationship between the perceived level of potential factors that affect research ability performance and the job performance of respondents.
