Question 2 • TX-Psychology CR

Someone who is preoccupied with rewards and treats and seldom does something for the pure enjoyment of it could most likely be __________.

Answer
A
intrinsically motivated
B
self-actualized
C
extrinsically motivated
D
driven

Explanation

Extrinsic motivation means doing something mainly to gain an external reward or avoid a consequence. Because this person focuses on treats and rewards rather than enjoying the activity itself, they are most likely extrinsically motivated. Intrinsic motivation, by contrast, comes from the enjoyment or interest of the activity itself.
