Detailed Explanation
Understanding Self-Determination Theory and Overjustification Effect
According to Self-Determination Theory (SDT), proposed by Edward Deci and Richard Ryan, intrinsic motivation is fueled by three psychological needs: autonomy, competence, and relatedness.
The Overjustification Effect occurs when an expected external incentive such as money or prizes decreases a person's intrinsic motivation to perform a task. When extrinsic rewards are introduced for activities that are intrinsically motivating, people shift their attribution of the behavior from internal interest to external rewards, diminishing their inherent drive once the reward is removed.
- Option C accurately explains this psychological phenomenon and its impact on intrinsic motivation.
