Detailed explanation-1: -Intrinsic motivation involves doing something because it’s personally rewarding to you. Extrinsic motivation involves doing something because you want to earn a reward or avoid punishment.
Detailed explanation-2: -Specifically, intrinsic motivation is the expression of a behavior that is pursued purely for the pleasure and satisfaction that comes by doing it, while extrinsic motivation is the expression of a behavior that is sought to an end and not for their own sake (Deci and Ryan, 1985).
Detailed explanation-3: -The theory suggests that rewarding people for an interesting activity leads them to attribute their behavior to the extrinsic reward rather than to their intrinsic interest in the activity. Thus, intrinsic motivation is lower if there is no extrinsic reward.
Detailed explanation-4: -Due to this need, presentation of extrinsic rewards for intrinsically motivated behavior will act to decrease intrinsic motivation. Extrinsic rewards cause a person to lose his feelings of personal causality and make him feel like a pawn controlled by the rewards.
