intrinsic

Examples of intrinsic in the following topics:

• Incentive Theory of Motivation and Intrinsic vs. Extrinsic Motivation

  • In addition to biological motives, motivations can be either intrinsic (arising from internal factors) or extrinsic (arising from external factors).
  • A classic research study of intrinsic motivation illustrates this problem clearly.
  • The extrinsic reward of payment, it seemed, interfered with the intrinsic reward of the activity itself.
  • Other studies suggest that intrinsic motivation may not be so vulnerable to the effects of extrinsic reinforcements, and in fact, reinforcements such as verbal praise might actually increase intrinsic motivation (Arnold, 1976; Cameron & Pierce, 1994).
  • Differentiate between intrinsic and extrinsic incentives as related to theories of motivation

• Defining Motivation

  • Motivation can be intrinsic (arising from internal factors) or extrinsic (arising from external factors).
  • You are intrinsically motivated to cook.
  • Sometimes, intrinsic motivation can diminish when extrinsic motivation is given—a process known as the overjustification effect.
  • This can lead to extinguishing the intrinsic motivation and creating a dependence on extrinsic rewards for continued performance.
  • Define motivation in terms of drives, motives, and intrinsic vs. extrinsic motivators

• Behavior Modification

  • Identification and use of appropriate reinforcers (intrinsic and extrinsic rewards).
  • A student receives an intrinsic reinforcer by correctly answering in the presence of peers, thus increasing self-esteem and confidence.
  • These include changing the environment, using models for learning new behavior, recording behavior, substituting new behavior to break bad habits, developing positive expectations, and increasing intrinsic satisfaction.

• Intrinsic Motivation

  • This PowerPoint explain the different ways to enhance intrinsic motivation, and lists strategies for using those in the media center.
  • The cause underlying such behaviors is intrinsic motivation.
  • However, some useful strategies that can promote intrinsic motivation have been proposed.
  • Lepper and Hodell (1989) suggest four methods for enhancing intrinsic motivation:
  • Fantasy: The design of simulations and games that involve fantasy can increase intrinsic motivation.

• Animism

  • Animism is the belief that non-human entities are spiritual beings, either intrinsically or because spirits inhabit them.
  • Animism refers to the belief that non-human entities are spiritual beings, either intrinsically or because spirits inhabit them for a period of time.

• Motivation

  • Motivation can originate from oneself (intrinsic) or from other people (extrinsic).
  • Motivation can originate from oneself (intrinsic) or from other people (extrinsic).
  • Internal, or intrinsic motivation ismotivation that is driven by an interest or enjoyment in the task itself, and exists within the individual rather than relying on any external pressure.
  • Competition is extrinsic because it encourages the performer to win, not simply to enjoy the intrinsic rewards of the activity.

• Effects of Aging on the Integumentary System

  • The effects of intrinsic aging are caused primarily by internal factors alone.
  • Wrinkles form due to intrinsic (loss of collagen) and extrinsic (photodamage) aging.

• Herzberg's Two-Factor Theory

  • Frederick Herzberg's Two-Factor Theory, also known as Motivation-Hygiene Theory or intrinsic vs. extrinsic motivation, concludes that there are certain factors in the workplace that can cause job satisfaction and a separate set of factors that can cause dissatisfaction.
  • According to Herzberg, intrinsic motivators and extrinsic motivators have an inverse relationship.
  • This is to say that intrinsic motivators tend to inspire motivation when they are present, while extrinsic motivators tend to reduce motivation when they are absent.

• Standard Reduction Potentials

  • Each species has its own intrinsic reduction potential.
  • Since the reduction potential measures the intrinsic tendency for a species to undergo reduction, comparing standard reduction potential for two processes can be useful for determining how a reaction will proceed.
