Answer:

extrinsic

Step-by-step explanation:

Extrinsic motivation is the behavior which is aroused out of the rewards which are given externally. The external rewards include money, grades, fame or praise. External rewards can be both psychological and tangible. Public praise and appreciation are two psychological forms of extrinsic motivation. These motivations help to increase the effectiveness of the work done and helps in building motivation.
