Week 13 - Managing Motivation
LEC
What is motivation?
Internal and external factors that stimulate desire and energy in people to be continually interested
and committed to a job or to make an effort to attain a goal
Motivation results from the interaction of both conscious and unconscious factors such as:
Intensity of desire or need
Incentive or reward value of the goal
Expectations of the individual and of their peers
Types of motivation
Controlled motivation - pressure from others or patient him/herself
Self-determined motivation - valued benefits, interest
Quantity of motivation - but very different consequences
Quality of motivation
Vallerand's Motivational Model (1997)
High quality motivation -> Positive consequences
Quality motivation and physical activity
Self-determined motivation -> long-term persistence with exercise
Exercise leaders and PE teachers can learn to promote self-determined motivation
Evidence from clinical settings
Patients in GP clinic who met with a SDTtrained activity counsellor were more active at 13
weeks than those who did not meet with a trained individual
Patients whose GPs supported their self-determined motivation were more likely to quit
smoking
Patients whose dental hygienist has been trained to promote self-determined motivation
showed decreases in plaque and gingivitis
Patients who rated their physiotherapist as more supportive had greater self-determined
motivation à better adherence
Vallerand's Motivational Model (1997)
