Summary
Description
Motivation is often split into two types. Itrinsic and Extrinsic describing whether motivation arises from outside (extrinsic) or inside (intrinsic) the individual.
Extrinsic Motivation
Extrinsic motivation occurs when we are motivated to perform a behavior or engage in an activity in order to earn a reward or avoid a punishment.
Intrinsic motivation
Intrinsic motivation involves engaging in a behavior because it is personally rewarding; essentially, performing an activity for its own sake rather than the desire for some external reward.
