What do you think about that proposition

Reference no: EM13185507

Many people are motivated by the work that you do because of an internal sense of satisfaction that they receive from doing their job well. One of the aspects that interests me about internal motivation is the research done by Deci. He looked at various aspects of internal and external motivation and found that when external rewards are offered for tasks that we do because we are internally motivated to do them, then the internal motivation tends to decrease.

For example, if in your job you were offered bonuses as incentive, Deci would say that your internal motivation would decrease because of this external reward.

What do you think about that proposition? Do you agree or disagree? What does the class think?
