Self determination theory Week 5 Flashcards
- Extrinsic Motivation
Reward/punishment
Decrease creativity and learning s
- Intrinsic motivation
Engage in activity for own sake
Enjoyment
Flow state
Hobbies-do it for pure happiness
- CET cognitive evaluation theory why may extrinsic rewards undermine intrinsic motivation
People need to feel competent and therefore when taken away that feeling that you are doing it for a reward the motivation will decrease.
- SDT-self determination theory-3 basic needs
- Competence-feel competent
- Autonomy-sense of choice REMEMBER!
- Relatedness-feel related (supporting and satisfying social relationships)
Motivational interviewing
No real theory
Client centered
Promote internalization of extrinsic change intentions
Counselor’s role:
Offer perspectives, support and motivation
Describe and explain the relationship between autonomous motivation and performance (Gagne & Deci,2005:p345-347) and treatment participation and outcomes (Markland et al., 2005, p 817-818).
More intrinsic motivation which comes from autonomous gives a higher performance. Patients expressing more autonomy for following a medication regimen were more likely to accurate and persistently take their prescribed medications. -Outcome: Healthy.
What are the similarities and differences between SDT and: Goal setting theory (see Gagne & Deci,2005:p341) and the theories of Maslow, Herzberg and Alderfer? (see Gagne & Deci,2005:p343
Goal setting t.: maximized performance when (1) they set specific, difficult goals that have high valence and (2) they understand what behaviors will lead to the goals and feel competent to do those behaviors.
STD: SDT proposes that autonomous motivation and intrinsic goals are better predictors of effective performance on heuristic tasks.
How do Markland and colleagues (2005) define Motivational Interviewing (MI)? What “key assumption” do they identify? (see page 813)
Client-centered, directive method for enhancing intrinsic motivation to change by exploring and resolving ambivalence. Key assumption: Client’s responsibility to change by themselves.
According to Markland and colleagues (2005) what are the four basic principles of MI? Explain and describe each principle.
The expression of empathy, the development of discrepancy, rolling with resistance, and support for self-efficacy.
- Describe and explain how MI can be used to provide structure, autonomy support and involvement to promote internalization (Markland et al., 2005; p820-823; see lecture slide). Explain how each principle satisfies the basic needs.
Structure-Develop goals, positive feedback, support self-efficacy-competence.
Autonomy support-Roll with resistance, explore options, change talk-autonomy
Involvement-Express empathy, client’s concerns, understanding, avoid judgment-Relatedness.
- Define motivation
Behavior is strong and persistent
Behavior has a purpose
- What is the role of ‘Relatedness’ in promoting intrinsic motivation according to Deci & Ryan (2000).
People usually tend to have more intrinsic motivation when their relationship to teachers and people in the environment are secure and that the more knowledgeable person is showing them the attention and affection the person needs.
- According to Deci & Ryan ( 2000) under what circumstances do the principles of CET not apply.
The principles of CET about intrinsic motivation (social environment can facilitate intrinsic motivation) does not apply when there is no interest from the beginning If intrinsic motivation does not exist at all, the person cannot get it through any specific activities.
- Why does Intrinsic M lead to more productive and healthier outcomes than Extrinsic M. Why does Integrated and Identified regulation often lead to better outcomes than external and introjected regulation? What is the evidence to support this? (see lecture notes and Deci & Ryan, 2000).
Extrinsically motivated people usually tend to blame others for their own failure because they don’t take on their things themselves. They also tend to have more anxiety and have more poorly coping strategies than internally motivated people. The reason why is because they are doing something that they prefer not to do.
Intrinsic motivation leads to enjoyment during the time spent doing the thing. It tends to enhance creativity and learning. Integrated and identified are closer to intrinsic motivation-closer to satisfy the three basic needs.
