What is the difference between extrinsic and intrinsic motivation?
What will be an ideal response?
Extrinsic motivation is motivation that causes people to participate in activities for the tangible reward they receive.
In contrast, intrinsic motivation causes people to participate in activities for their own enjoyment, not for the
reward the activities bring them. If work is seen purely as a means to an end (as in extrinsic motivation), it may be
less likely to produce positive benefits than if the work itself is seen as meaningful (as in intrinsic motivation).
