AP PSYCHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -While extrinsic motivation is helpful in certain situations, it may eventually lead to burnout or lose its effectiveness over time. Intrinsic motivation is typically more effective long term for completing tasks and achieving goals in a way that makes you feel fulfilled.

Detailed explanation-2: -Intrinsic motivation is preferred to extrinsic motivation because it is self-determined and does not depend on reinforcement by the environment. Motivated behavior is not dependent on external rewards or penalties, and involves self-directed motivation, so it is stronger and lasts longer in the face of challenges.

Detailed explanation-3: -FALSE. The motivation that produces the best results is intrinsic motivation. Extrinsic motivation originates coming from external forces, whereas intrinsic motivation originates from within.

Detailed explanation-4: -Extrinsic motivation can be useful for persuading someone to complete a task. Before assigning a reward-based task, it’s important to know if the person doing the task is motivated by the reward being offered. Extrinsic motivators may be a useful tool to help children learn new skills when used in moderation.
