An experimenter visits a preschool with a big box of magic markers and paper. The children are told that they can draw as many pictures as they want. The children enjoy the task very much. On another visit, the children are told that, for every picture they draw, they would earn a prize. Two weeks later when the experimenter returned, he offered up the markers and paper for play but said that no prizes would be given. The children played very little with the markers because extrinsic rewards can undermine motivation.

Intrinsic Motivation

Explanation:

People who get paid for an activity are less likely to repeat that activity of there is no more reward as opposed to people who have been doing that same activity without payment.

This shows that EXTRINSIC motivation can undermine Intrinsic Motivation.

It is for this reason that extrinsic motivation is not recommended for certain activities but rather positive feedback which has been shown to contribute to INTRINSIC Motivation.
