  • reasons for quitting intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation for smoking cessation in a population based sample of smokers
    Addictive Behaviors, 1997
    Co-Authors: Susan J Curry, Louis C Grothaus, Colleen M Mcbride
    Abstract:

    An intrinsic-Extrinsic model of Motivation for smoking cessation is extended to a population-based sample of smokers (N = 1,137), using a previously validated Reasons for Quitting (RFQ) scale. Psychometric evaluation of the RFQ replicated the model that includes health concerns and self-control as intrinsic Motivation dimensions and immediate reinforcement and social influence as Extrinsic Motivation dimensions. Compared to volunteers, the population-based sample of smokers reported equivalent health concerns, lower self-control, and higher social influence Motivation for cessation. Within the population-based sample, women compared to men were less motivated to quit by health concerns and more motivated by immediate reinforcement; smokers above age 55 expressed lower health concerns and higher self-control Motivation than smokers below age 55. Higher baseline levels of intrinsic relative to Extrinsic Motivation were associated with more advanced stages of readiness to quit smoking and successful smoking cessation at a 12-month follow-up. Among continuing smokers, improvement in stage of readiness to quit over time was associated with significant increases in health concerns and self-control Motivation.

  • intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation for smoking cessation
    Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 1990
    Co-Authors: Susan J Curry, Edward H Wagner, Louis C Grothaus
    Abstract:

    : An intrinsic-Extrinsic model of Motivation for smoking cessation was evaluated with 2 samples (ns = 1.217 and 151) of smokers who requested self-help materials for smoking cessation. Exploratory and confirmatory principal components analysis on a 36-item Reasons for Quitting (RFQ) scale supported the intrinsic-Extrinsic Motivation distinction. A 4-factor model, with 2 intrinsic dimensions (concerns about health and desire for self-control) and 2 Extrinsic dimensions (immediate reinforcement and social influence), was defined by 20 of the 36 RFQ items. The 20-item measure demonstrated moderate to high levels of internal consistency and convergent and discriminant validity. Logistic regression analyses indicated that smokers with higher levels of intrinsic relative to Extrinsic Motivation were more likely to achieve abstinence from smoking.

  • Intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation in sport and physical activity:
    Handbook of sport psychology (3rd Ed.). Tenenbaum, 2007
    Co-Authors: Robert J. Vallerand
    Abstract:

    (from the chapter) Motivation has been repeatedly reported as a key element of athletes' success in sport and exercisers' persistence with an exercise regimen. Thus, it is not surprising that much research has been conducted on Motivation in sport and physical activity. Intrinsic Motivation (doing something for its own sake) and Extrinsic Motivation (doing something as a means to an end and not for its own sake), in particular, have been very popular topics and have allowed researchers to make sense of several phenomena of importance in sport and physical activity. The purpose of this chapter is to present a review of research on intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation with a keen eye on the most recent research and trends. I start by defining Motivation in general and intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation in particular. I then present a brief overview of the organismic approach, specifically self-determination theory (SDT). I present the hierarchical model of intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation (HMIEM), which serves as the organizing framework for the review. I then focus on recent research that has appeared since our initial review. Finally, I conclude by highlighting recent research trends considered to be important and provide suggestions for future research directions that appear promising.

  • Intrinic and Extrinsic Motivation in Sport.pdf
    Encyclopedia of Applied Psychology, 2004
    Co-Authors: Robert J. Vallerand
    Abstract:

    The purpose of this article is to provide an overview of what is known about intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation in sport. After some deinitional issues, the article focuses on the assessment intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation. It then proceeds to a discussion on the determinants and outcomes of intrinsic and extrincis Motivation. The article concludes with a discussion on intervention issues.

  • an integrative analysis of intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation in sport
    Journal of Applied Sport Psychology, 1999
    Co-Authors: Robert J. Vallerand, Gaetan F Losier
    Abstract:

    Abstract The purpose of this paper is to propose a Motivational sequence that integrates much of the intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation literature in sport. The proposed Motivational sequence: “Social Factors → Psychological Mediators → Types of Motivation → Consequences” is in line with self-determination theory (Deci & Ryan. 1985. 1991) and the Hierarchical model of intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation (Vallerand, 1997). Using the sequence, it is first shown that the Motivational impact of social factors inherent in sport, such as competition/cooperation, success/failure, and coaches' behaviors toward athletes, takes place through their influence on athletes' perceptions of autonomy, competence, and relatedness (i.e., the psychological mediators). Second, recent results are provided with respect to a new multidimensional measure (i.e., the Sport Motivation Scale; Pelletier et al., 1995) to assess the different types of athletes' motives. Third, we review findings that suggest that such sport motives lead ...

  • toward a hierarchical model of intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation
    Advances in Experimental Social Psychology, 1997
    Co-Authors: Robert J. Vallerand
    Abstract:

    Publisher Summary The chapter outlines a general model of intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation, the Hierarchical model. This model serves two objectives. First, the model provides a framework to organize the literature on intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation, as well as to identify the psychological mechanisms underlying Motivational changes. Intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation represents a substantial portion of people's experiences when involved in activities. Furthermore, conceptual and methodological advances are presented supporting a multidimensional approach to the study of Motivational phenomena. Such an approach has been found useful—for instance, for distinguishing nonintrinsic but internalized Motivational forces that promote adaptive consequences such as persisting at difficult tasks from other internalized forces that compromise adaptive adjustment. A second objective of the hierarchical model is to lead to novel and testable hypotheses. Moreover, other aspects of the model also appear as prime candidates for future research. Such a model serves to integrate the literature and points toward new research. It is within such a contextually situated perspective that the model shows its greatest promise of usefulness.

  • intrinsic versus Extrinsic Motivation an approach avoidance reformulation
    Educational Psychology Review, 2001
    Co-Authors: Martin V Covington, Kimberly J Mueller
    Abstract:

    The main purpose of this article is to advance an alternative perspective on the relationship between intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation, and in particular to examine critically the assertion that these processes are antagonistic such that the will to learn for its own sake is inhibited by the presence of Extrinsic, tangible rewards and incentives such as school grades. The presumption of an antagonistic relationship largely depends on the theoretical perspective adopted. An alternative interpretation based on need achievement theory leads to distinctly different conclusions. Exploring this new perspective allows one to identify both the conditions under which intrinsic motives may coexist with Extrinsic motives as well as to consider some of the means by which intrinsic motives and caring about learning can be stimulated in their own right in school settings.

  • intrinsic versus Extrinsic Motivation in schools a reconciliation
    Current Directions in Psychological Science, 2000
    Co-Authors: Martin V Covington
    Abstract:

    This article explores the nature of the relationship between intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation in schools, and in particular examines critically the assertion that these processes are necessarily antagonistic. The weight of evidence suggests that rewards in the form of school grades and the focus of many students on doing well, gradewise, need not necessarily interfere with learning for its own sake. Educational implications of these findings are considered. One such implication is that focusing on students' interests can be a valuable Motivational strategy.
