Thank you sir, I feel really delighted when I watched this video from the person who is describing his own theory (Self-determination theory) and it intrinsically motivates me. This video should take millions of likes, not hundreds.
It is a simple recall of words. Knowing the definition and vernacular of what's being discussed or learned. Thanks to repetition,"seeing the forest through the trees, it becomes extrinsic as it is intrinsic."
Self-determination theory begins by making an important distinction: most people who think about psychology think about it as a unitary concept namely it's something that differs just an amount how can I get someone more motivated to do something how can I getthat person less motivated to do something they really the focus is always on amount but from the beginning Ryan and I have believed that it was important to think about types of motivation rather than the amount of motivation our primary distinction is between what we call autonomous motivation and controlled motivation Autonomous motivation describes or names what you're doing when you're feeling a full sense of willingness volition and choice whatever the activity is if you're doing it with a real sense of interest enjoyment and value then it's likely that you're autonomously motivated In contrast, controlled motivation refers to doing something in order to get some reward or to avoid some punishment it means doing something because you're feeling pressured demanded obliged to be doing it I think when most people think about motivation they're more often thinking about controlled motivation than autonomous motivation but we have found that when people are more autonomously motivated the performance their wellness their engagement all of those things aregreater when you're autonomously motivated than when you're controlled in your motivation so that's the the firstimportant distinction that we make in self-determination Theory the second important point is we believe that all human beings have a set of basic psychological needs the needs that we believe are important are the need for competence that is to say to feel confident and effective in relation to whatever it is you're doing second to feel relatedness that is to say to feel cared for by others to care for others to feel like you belong in various groups that are important to you and the third need is autonomy I've already said a bit about autonomy but now I'm making the point that autonomy is actually a human need and a human need is something that people must get satisfied for optimal wellness and optimal performance if they don't get it the need satisfied then there will be negative psychological consequences that follow the concept of psychological needs being universal is an important one because it's what lets us know and understand what it is that will promote autonomous motivation when people feel competent when they feel related to others and when they're feeling a sense of volition they will be autonomously motivated and the positive consequences will follow from that so the importance of this is that when you ask questions like how do you promote effective motivation in the workplace or inschools or in health care clinics wherever it is whatever domain of life you're talking about if you are interested in producing optimal outcomes the way in which you can do that as a parent or a teacher or an employer the way that you can do that is create the circumstances so that people who are learning or playing or performing for you so that they will be optimal in their outcomes what you need to be doing is supporting their basic psychological needs now when it comes to autonomous motivation there are actually two types of autonomous motivation when I first started doing this work I was very interested in the concept of intrinsic motivation to do something because you're intrinsically motivated means you do it because you find it interesting and enjoyable that contrasts with extrinsic motivation which means you do it because it leads to some separable consequence okay so intrinsic motivation is one type of autonomous motivation the other type of autonomous motivation was really developed by Richard Ryan it was he who got interested in the idea of extrinsic motivation and whether X turns motivation could be autonomous or not and what he found in research and in other research that we did together is that people can actually internalize extrinsic motivation in such a way as they own it as their own and when they do that when they understand the value of the activity that may be rewarded or requested of them when they do that and identify with the value of it and integrate it so that it's a part of themselves they will be autonomously motivated and the outcomes that you observe in such situations will be very positive."
Wow, what a charming guy. I just wanted to check out how to pronounce his name for my oral exam but I watched the whole video, very interesting to listen to.
Deci & Ryan have done an incredible job with SDT. In fact, their theory is a cornerstone for a series of hypotheses I'm currently working with. Kennon M. Sheldon has also done some amazing research extending from SDT. This is a vibrant and important field of study.
I believe there is a deep truth in SDT that goes way beyond motivation; to me it has a universal explanatory power that explains a lot of the more complex human behavior, and it also helps to talk about freedom without descending into the rabbit hole of "free will". It is also compatible with the theory of the mind being a probabilistic computer, and choice being the outcome of computation. The three SDT needs also in my mind seem to correspond with three main political movements: Autonomy is the main value in liberalism, social inclusion is the focus of socialism, and conservatism represents the need for competence, which requires order and rules to be able to successfully predict and control outcomes. Good politics would be politics that that satisfy all needs, and if politics puts one of these needs too high above the others, bad things happen. It maybe a bit of a stretch, but I believe there is truth in it. Are there any studies or theories about this?
I don’t know if there are studies on this link. But I’ve wondered things along the same lines. I think SDT implies very strong political policies. The SDT book (2017 I think) does develop some of those political implications. Thanks for sharing your thought. Just wanted you to know some of us have seen those links as well. 👊🏼
oh wow this is so inspiring, informative and just so touching, I now understand the Self-Determination theory. I actually had tears in my eyes watching this. Thank you so much.
Thanks for this, Ed! I have posted a link in the course on motivation in human development that I teach each semester at the Warner School of Education, University of Rochester.
What a wonderful and helpful video! I am so glad I came across this as it has not only helped me with my research paper but it also left me feeling more motivated in general after understanding the theory and process better ✨
Thanks for this, I really like this SDT theory! I wonder if there's any difference between intrinsic motivation and internalised extrinsic motivation, though they all belong to autonomous motivation. Can we say an internalised extrinsic motivation actually becomes an intrinsic motivation?
Dr Edward Deci, I found this information most interesting. I do not have the competency to extrapolate from this theory. Would you be willing to give us an example of the steps it would take to instil extrinsic motivation into oneself? Or would you let me know where I would find this information? Please.
Looking for resources on how to recover from one's curiosity being damaged. I used to be so intensely curious about everything, especially science, just for the sake of knowing how things worked. I let one bad professor get to me somehow, and I've only been passively interested in things ever since, no true curiosity. I was born to be a scientist, and was frustrated that the appeal was completely gone. After that class I decided not to continue on to grad school and my life took a completely different path. I know I can't get my old life back, but is there a way to get the old me back? Can people recover from having their intrisic motivation and curiosity wiped out after it's been 10 years?
I was confused at first too. I think that any form of motivation (extrinsic or intrinsic) that is internalised is considered autonomous. Intrinsic motivation is the most internalised form of motivation (doing things that are interesting to you and you would experience enjoyment while doing so). Types of extrinsic motivation can be considered controlling or autonomous. Extrinsic motivation that is not internalised will result in behaviours that are controlled by external pressures such as rewards and punishments. Extrinsic motivation that is internalised will result in behaviours that are congruent to one's beliefs and values, and pursue actions towards their internalised goals. The difference between internalised-extrinsic motivation and intrinsic motivation is that the behaviours of an intrinsically motivated individuals are done out of interest, curiosity and enjoyment, whereas behaviours of internalised-extrinsic motivation are done because they view an activity to be important for their goals (but not necessarily fun or interesting).
@@PenCil5899 if I could add to what you have beautifully explained: Extrinsic motivation when internalised, could convert into intrinsic motivation with all the characteristics associated with intrinsic like enjoyment ect..that you have mentioned.
Thankyou for the video. I am interested in this theory. However I still have a question, If intrinsic and extrinsic motivation are types of autonomous motivation, what about amotivation? is amotivation a type of controlled motivation?
interesting, I am trying to find out what exactly is my motivation of riding a Harley, I am amazed by Harley, but I also doubt that I like to ride a Harley because I feel others look at me in a positive way. I have not found out the true motivation...
Watching someone explain his own theory which is a part of your academic syllabus.... Is itself motivating
Ikr! And it makes it so easy to understand as well!
This is the best explanation of a concept/theory I have ever heard. So incredibly concise and short yet so accurate and comprehensive.
I'll be doing my thesis with this theory, incredibly grateful to hear Mr. Deci himself explaining this.
same here (undergrad honours thesis)
Here too!
me too!!
Same! Hope your thesis is, or went, well! :D
i'm doing a project with this theory hehe
He explained it so well and that too in 8 minutes. Will be there in my mind forever.Thank you so much Professor.
I still cant believe this video has only 412 likes. Every person involved in the field of education should study professor Deci. Thanks for the video
He is amazing and their theory. In my case, a no native speaker, it was easy to understand what he said and the proposition. Amazing!
Same like Darren Hardy author of famous book Compound Effect
It's amazing to have the theorist himself explain their life's work. Thank you sir!
great theory and years of work behind it, respect to you professor
Thank you sir, I feel really delighted when I watched this video from the person who is describing his own theory (Self-determination theory) and it intrinsically motivates me. This video should take millions of likes, not hundreds.
You helped my assignment. What a legend!
It is a simple recall of words. Knowing the definition and vernacular of what's being discussed or learned. Thanks to repetition,"seeing the forest through the trees, it becomes extrinsic as it is intrinsic."
Self-determination theory begins by making an important distinction:
most people who think about psychology think about it as a unitary concept namely
it's something that differs just an amount how can I get someone more motivated to do something how can I getthat person less motivated to do
something they really the focus is always on amount but from the beginning
Ryan and I have believed that it was important to think about types of motivation rather than the amount of
motivation our primary distinction is between what we call
autonomous motivation and controlled motivation
Autonomous motivation describes or names
what you're doing when you're feeling a
full sense of willingness volition and
choice whatever the activity is if
you're doing it with a real sense of
interest enjoyment and value then it's
likely that you're autonomously motivated
In contrast, controlled
motivation refers to doing something in order to get some
reward or to avoid some punishment it
means doing something because you're
feeling pressured demanded obliged to be doing it
I think when most people think about motivation they're more often thinking
about controlled motivation than autonomous motivation but we have found
that when people are more autonomously motivated the performance their wellness
their engagement all of those things aregreater when you're autonomously
motivated than when you're controlled in your motivation so that's the the firstimportant distinction that we make in self-determination Theory
the second important point is we believe that all
human beings have a set of basic psychological needs the needs that we believe are important
are the need for competence that is to say to feel confident and effective in relation to whatever it is you're doing
second to feel relatedness that is to say to feel cared for by others to care for others to feel like you belong in various groups that are important to you and the third need is autonomy
I've already said a bit about autonomy but now I'm making
the point that autonomy is actually a human need and a human need is something
that people must get satisfied for optimal wellness and optimal performance
if they don't get it the need satisfied
then there will be negative psychological consequences that follow
the concept of psychological needs being universal is an important one
because it's what lets us know and understand what it is
that will promote autonomous motivation
when people feel competent
when they feel related to others
and when they're feeling a sense of volition
they will be autonomously motivated and the positive consequences will follow from that
so the importance of this is that
when you ask questions like
how do you promote effective motivation in the workplace or inschools or in health care clinics wherever it is
whatever domain of life you're talking about if you are interested in producing optimal outcomes
the way in which you can do that as a
parent or a teacher or an employer the
way that you can do that is create the
circumstances so that people who are
learning or playing or performing for
you so that they will be optimal in
their outcomes what you need to be doing
is supporting their basic psychological
needs now when it comes to autonomous
motivation there are actually two types
of autonomous motivation when I first
started doing this work I was very
interested in the concept of intrinsic
motivation to do something because
you're intrinsically motivated means you
do it because you find it interesting
and enjoyable that contrasts with
extrinsic motivation which means you do
it because it leads to some separable
consequence okay
so intrinsic motivation is one type of
autonomous motivation the other type of
autonomous motivation was really
developed by Richard Ryan it was he who
got interested in the idea of extrinsic
motivation and whether X turns
motivation could be autonomous or not
and what he found in research and in
other research that we did together is
that people can actually internalize
extrinsic motivation in such a way as
they own it as their own and when they
do that when they understand the value
of the activity that may be rewarded or
requested of them when they do that and
identify with the value of it and
integrate it so that it's a part of
themselves they will be autonomously
motivated and the outcomes that you
observe in such situations will be very
positive."
I was just wondering how I could transcribe this so thank you!
Wow, what a charming guy. I just wanted to check out how to pronounce his name for my oral exam but I watched the whole video, very interesting to listen to.
It is simple but has important essences about the theory. I am very happy to be able to watch prof Deci's short lecture.
Deci & Ryan have done an incredible job with SDT. In fact, their theory is a cornerstone for a series of hypotheses I'm currently working with. Kennon M. Sheldon has also done some amazing research extending from SDT. This is a vibrant and important field of study.
Finally, we need more video like this on youtube, such a great theory 🙏
I really love this one. So inspiring and helpful for my bachelorthesis :) Thanks for your work!
That's a very concise and well-articulated explanation, Professor Deci!
This is very helpful 4 my Assignment. Thank you for uploading!!
Thanks, really succinct and from the man himself.
In considering this theoretical framework for a study, I thank you for creating this video.

Im working on SDT for my dissertation. Currently finishing off my lit review and its such an awesome theory. Makes so much sense! Thank you mr deci.
oh wow this is so inspiring, informative and just so touching, I now understand the Self-Determination theory. I actually had tears in my eyes watching this. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for sharing with us! It was sooooo great!
Thank you very much for sharing this insightful video, Dr. Deci. Very helpful with my understanding.
que bueno encontrar a la persona que creo una teoría y que explica tan claramente su trabajo.
Thanks for this, Ed! I have posted a link in the course on motivation in human development that I teach each semester at the Warner School of Education, University of Rochester.

Deci major impact on society explaining layman's terms of motivation.
Thanks you so much for your dedications over the years 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you for this video. Thank you Mr. Edward Deci for explaining your own theory🙂
Amazing... thanks for such an impactful theory of motivation.
Amazing scholar and work.
Thanks!! Really admire Dr. Deci!
Wow, I feel empowered, thanks so much
Thank you Dr Deci! very well explained!
Thank you! I will try to internalize the extrinsic motivation. This would make it much easier for me to write my masters thesis!
Thanks for your effor and time doing this
your explanation is really helpful sir, thank you very much
Much thanks!
Thank you so much for this very clear explanation Mr Deci.
Thanks so much; that is really clear and extremely useful.
thank you so much, this video really helps me In doing my assignment.
What is the difference between the need for control and the need for autonomy?
Thanks for this, I really like this SDT theory! I wonder if there's any difference between intrinsic motivation and internalised extrinsic motivation, though they all belong to autonomous motivation. Can we say an internalised extrinsic motivation actually becomes an intrinsic motivation?
Please elaborate further
Dr Edward Deci, I found this information most interesting. I do not have the competency to extrapolate from this theory. Would you be willing to give us an example of the steps it would take to instil extrinsic motivation into oneself? Or would you let me know where I would find this information? Please.
Thank you so much for this !!!
This is very helpful to me
Is there such a thing as integrated motivation that combines both autonomous and controlled motivation?
Looking for resources on how to recover from one's curiosity being damaged. I used to be so intensely curious about everything, especially science, just for the sake of knowing how things worked. I let one bad professor get to me somehow, and I've only been passively interested in things ever since, no true curiosity.

I don’t get it - isn’t autonomous synonymous with intrinsic and controlled motivation synonymous with extrinsic?
I am also confused about that😫
I was confused at first too. I think that any form of motivation (extrinsic or intrinsic) that is internalised is considered autonomous. Intrinsic motivation is the most internalised form of motivation (doing things that are interesting to you and you would experience enjoyment while doing so).
Types of extrinsic motivation can be considered controlling or autonomous. Extrinsic motivation that is not internalised will result in behaviours that are controlled by external pressures such as rewards and punishments. Extrinsic motivation that is internalised will result in behaviours that are congruent to one's beliefs and values, and pursue actions towards their internalised goals.
The difference between internalised-extrinsic motivation and intrinsic motivation is that the behaviours of an intrinsically motivated individuals are done out of interest, curiosity and enjoyment, whereas behaviours of internalised-extrinsic motivation are done because they view an activity to be important for their goals (but not necessarily fun or interesting).
In the paper autonomous motivation is divided into different types of intrinsic motivation
@@PenCil5899 if I could add to what you have beautifully explained:
Extrinsic motivation when internalised, could convert into intrinsic motivation with all the characteristics associated with intrinsic like enjoyment ect..that you have mentioned.
Autonomy is a need generally, so it applies not just to motivation. And intrinsic motivatoon has other components as well like competency.
If you dedicate your actions everything can become autonomously motivated.
Thankyou for the video. I am interested in this theory. However I still have a question, If intrinsic and extrinsic motivation are types of autonomous motivation, what about amotivation? is amotivation a type of controlled motivation?
Beautiful. Thank you
Does an extrinsic motivation that becomes internalized mean that it has become intrinsic motivation?
Everyone should be granted the third, where you prove the first two
interesting, I am trying to find out what exactly is my motivation of riding a Harley, I am amazed by Harley, but I also doubt that I like to ride a Harley because I feel others look at me in a positive way. I have not found out the true motivation...
Amazing! what year was the video released?
2017
Is there a date and company rights on this interview?
All rights are reserved and held by the Brainwaves Video Anthology.
can someone help me site after apa for this video?:)
Love it!
so good
Thanks Coursera
Change Management brought me here.
I love the groovy music at the start🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Damn!! That’s just bloww my mind
Watching this video because of controlled motivation. The Lecturer demanded I watch.
My hometown!!!
Legend
my textbook is tranlated from english to native language, and i didnt understand shit. now it makes sense 😂
Good nice greyest things are achieved when the best mind meets
Heyy is there any psychology student here ? Especially from U.S. or canada?
👍👍
I now too much understand
