Surveillance, deadlines, and pressure from external rewards can diminish intrinsic motivation. People feel less interested in the activity because they perceive it as being controlled by external factors.

External rewards, such as praise or money, can be effective, but only in the short term. Over time, they become less effective as they fail to sustain intrinsic motivation.

Shame, guilt, and other negative external motivators can diminish motivation, even more than positive external motivators. They often trigger feelings of incompetence and fear, which can lead to a decrease in engagement.

The way someone perceives a reward can influence their motivation. If they perceive the reward as a manipulative tool or a sign of lack of trust, it can decrease motivation. Conversely, a reward perceived as a genuine gesture can increase motivation.

External motivators, such as rewards, pressure, or punishment, are less effective than intrinsic motivators such as interest, joy, and personal satisfaction. They often lead to short-term engagement and can even decrease intrinsic motivation long-term.

No, external factors can sometimes increase intrinsic motivation if done correctly. Giving appropriate praise, providing a sense of accomplishment, or challenging tasks can boost engagement and increase intrinsic motivation.
