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.
