Document Summary
5. 1 define motivation, discuss its properties and distinguish it from performance. Motivation: the extent to which persistent effort is directed toward a goal. 5. 2 compare and contrast intrinsic and extrinsic motivation and describe self-determination theory, autonomous motivation and controlled motivation. Intrinsic motivation: stems from the direct relationship between the worker and the tasks. Extrinsic motivation: stems from the work environment external to the task, it is usually applied by others. When extrinsic rewards depend on performance, then the motivating potential of intrinsic rewards decreases. Self-determination theory (sdt): a theory of motivation that considers whether people"s motivation is autonomous or controlled. Autonomous motivation: when people are self0motivated by intrinsic factors. Controlled motivation: when people are motivated to obtain a desired consequence or extrinsic reward. 5. 3 explain the different factors that predict performance and define general cognitive ability and emotional intelligence. Performance: the extent to which an organizational member contributes to achieving the objectives of the organization.
