Well yes and no.
Knowing you have a lousy score should motivate one to find ways to improve it because they are not reaping the benefits of a high score.
Knowing you have a good score means you are doing things right and to keep on doing them.

It is sort of like watching the speedometer on your vehicle. If you are fixated on it, you can't be watching everything else. If you see a sign saying "community safety zone - fines doubled" it pays to glance down and check to make sure you are not going to get caught in a radar trap.
