Answer 1

Extrinsic motivation

Extrinsic motivation is defined as behavior that is motivated by external factors outside an individual such as rewards, fame, attention or praise. Therefore, if Jack’s motivation for successfully completing a project is a salary raise and more, he is externally motivated. He is motivated to do well largely by the external factor, money, rather than intrinsic factors such as a sense of achievement and pride.
