Week 4: Participation, Engagement, and Meaning Flashcards
According to “Self-Determination Theory and the Facilitation of Intrinsic Motivation, Social Development, and Well-Being” by Ryan and Deci (2000), research guided by self-determination theory has examined factors that enhance which three things:
A. Intrinsic motivation, social connection, and well-being
B. Environment, social connection, and motivation
C. Intrinsic motivation, self-regulation, and well-being
D. Motivation, self-regulation, and time
C. Intrinsic motivation, self-regulation, and well-being
According to Ryan and Deci (2000)'s article on self-determination, research has led to the postulate of three innate psychological needs that are the basis for self-motivation and optimal functioning that lead to social development and mental well-being: A. Competence, leadership, relatedness B. Comfort, safety, relatedness C. Love, autonomy, relatedness D. Competence, autonomy, relatedness
D. Competence, autonomy, relatedness
According to Ryan and Deci (2000), Social determination theory research is focused on understanding the conditions that undermine positive human potentials
False. Focus on understanding the conditions that foster versus undermine positive human potentials
According to Ryan and Deci (2000), biology is the deciding factor of one’s motivation
False. More than just biology, but social environments are critical to motivation
According to Ryan and Deci (2000) plays a role in personality development
True. SDT highlights the importance of humans’ evolved inner resources for personality development and behavioral self-regulation
According to Ryan and Deci (2000), one of the basic psychological needs important for self-motivation that relates to the desire to control and master the environment and outcome: A. Relatedness B. Connection C. Autonomy D. Competence
D. Competence. We want to know how things will turn out and what the results are of our actions
According to Ryan and Deci (2000), one of the basic psychological needs important for self-motivation that describes our desire to interact with, be connected to, and experience caring for other people A. Relatedness B. Connection C. Autonomy D. Competence
A. Relatedness. Our actions and daily activities involve other people and through this we week the feeling of belongingness
According to Ryan and Deci (2000), one of the basic psychological needs important for self-motivation that describes the urge to be causal agents and to act in harmony with our integrated self A. Relatedness B. Connection C. Autonomy D. Competence
C. Autonomy.
T/F: Autonomy, one of the basic psychological needs associated with self-determination theory, is synonymous with independence.
False. To be autonomous doesn’t mean to be independent. It means having a sense of free will when doing something or acting out of our own interests and values
Aims of Ryan and Deci’s (2000) article on Self Determination Theory includes all except which of the following:
A. Review Intrinsic motivation, the key to learning and creativity, and consider conditions that facilitate or inhibit this type of motivation
B. Analyze self-regulation and discuss how intrinsic contingencies transform values and motivations
C. Discuss the impact of psychological need fulfillment on health and well-being
D. All of the above are aims of the article
B. Ryan and Deci (2000) aim to analyze self-regulation and discuss how EXTRINSIC contingencies transform values and motivations
According to Ryan and Deci (2000), why is motivation highly valued in the real world?
Because of its consequences: motivation produces
According to Ryan and Deci (2000), what is at the core of biological, cognitive, and social regulation: A. creativity B. motivation C. well-being D. self-esteem
B. motivation–motivation produces
T/F: Motivation is driven by intrinsic factors
False. Motivation can be driven by intrinsic or extrinsic factors
T/F: Extrinsic motivation is linked with interest, excitement, confidence, with improved performance, creativity, vitality, self-esteem, and well-being
False INTRINSIC motivation is linked with interest, excitement, confidence, with improved performance, creativity, vitality, self-esteem, and well-being
According to Ryan and Deci (2000), STD attempts to understand what type of _________ is operating at any given time
Motivation
According to Ryan and Deci (2000), Intrinsic motivation is the inherent tendency to:
A. seek out novelty and challenges
B. to extend and exercise one’s capabilities
C. to explore
D. to learn
E. All of the above
E. All of the above
According to Ryan and deci (2000), intrinsic motivation requires what to maintain and enhance its quality A. Extrinsic factors B. Knowledge of oneself C. Supportive conditions D. Future goals
C. Supportive conditions
According to Ryan and deci (2000), this is a subtheory within self-determination theory with the aim of specifying factors that explain variability in intrinsic motivation A. Co-regulation evaluation theory B. Cognitive evaluation Theory C. Self reflection theory D. Social thinking theory
B. Cognitive evaluation theory (CET). It is framed in terms of social and environmental factors that facilitate versus undermine intrinsic motivation. It will flourish if circumstances permit.
According to Ryan and deci (2000), Cognitive evaluation Theory (CET) is framed in terms of which factors: A. language B. Social C. Environmental D. B and C E. All of the above
D. Social and environmental factors
According to Ryan and deci (2000), Cognitive evaluation theory (CET) aims to understand sources of both \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ and \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ of the positive aspects of human nature: A. Alienation and connection B. Freedom and liberty C. Nature and nurture D. Alienation and Liberation
D. Alienation and liberation
According to Ryan and deci (2000)’s cognitive evaluation theory (CET), individuals will flourish if…
A. They are motivated
B. If they are given choice
C. If they are put into the right environmental circumstances
D. If they have a future plan mapped out
C. IF they are put into the right environmental circumstances
T/F: According to Ryan and Deci (2000), Cognitive Evaluation Theory (CET) focuses on: A. Competence B. Autonomy C. Control D. A and B E. All of the above
D. Competence and Autonomy but also considers relatedness
T/F: According to Ryan and Deci (2000), Cognitive Evaluation Theory (CET) only applies to behaviors and activities that have intrinsic appeal
True
According to Ryan and Deci (2000), what can boost feelings of confidence and intrinsic motivation? A. Feedback B. Communications C. Rewards D. Optimal challenges E. All of the above
E. All of the above. Ryan and Deci (2000) state that social-contextual events (e.g., feedback, communications, rewards, optimal challenges, effective-promoting feedback, and freedom from demeaning evaluations) can boost feelings of confidence and intrinsic motivation
T/F: According to Ryan and Deci (2000), extrinsic rewards increase intrinsic motivation
False. Extrinsic rewards diminish intrinsic motivation (external locus of control)
-LIke tangible rewards, they conduce toward an external perceived locus of causality
According to Ryan and deci (2000), competence does not enhance motivation unless accompanied by a sense of: A. Truth B. Fulfillment C. Autonomy D. All of the above
C. Autonomy (internal locust of control).
-Autonomy supportive teachers boost intrinsic motivation; autonomy supportive parents have children that are more intrinsically motivated
According to Ryan and Deci (2000), intrinsic motivation is most likely to flourish in situations characterized by a sense of: A. Leadership B. Exploration C. Security D. Relatedness E. C and D
C and D; intrinsic motivation is most likely to flourish in situations characterized by a sense of security and relatedness
-E.g., exploratory behavior in infants is facilitated by secure attachment to mother who gives autonomous support; students experiencing their teachers as being cold and uncaring have lower intrinsic motivation
T/F: According to Ryan and Deci (2000), Intrinsically motivated tasks must be performed in the presence of others who provide a sense of security and relatedness
False. Some intrinsically motivated tasks are performed in isolation–proximal relation may not always be necessary
What do Ryan and Deci (2000) define as performance of an activity in order to attain some separable outcome
External motivation. Not motivated toward some internal satisfaction
According to Ryan and Deci, extrinsic motivation always yields low levels of autonomy
False. Encompasses varied levels of autonomy
-E.g., doing homework to achieve success in a future career (choice and personal endorsement) vs. doing homework because your parents say so (compliance and external regulation)
Theory within SDT which details the different forms of extrinsic motivation and the contextual factors that either promote or hinder internalization and integration of the regulation for these behaviors
Organismic Integration Theory (OIT).

E. Internalization (taking in a value) and Integration (transforming the value to be their own) allow for extrinsic demand to move toward internal locus of control
According to Ryan and Deci’s Organismic Integration Theory (OTD), motivation is a continuum based on…
Motivation is a continuum based on the amount of internalization of self-regulation and other contextual factors that promote or hinder integration
T/F: According to Ryan and Deci (2000), higher levels of internalization and integration factors yield in less autonomy
