(Deci & Ryan, 1985) SDT is a theory of motivation that is built on the assumption that humans have innate tendencies to move in directions of greater self-regulation, competence, and integration in action. This process is dependent on the support and fulfilment of three basic psychological needs: competence, relatedness, and autonomy. In the 1970s, research on SDT evolved from studies comparing the intrinsic and extrinsic motives, and from a growing understanding of the dominant role intrinsic motivation played in an individual’s behavior. Before this understanding, SDT was formally introduced and accepted as a sound empirical theory. Research applying SDT to different areas in social psychology has definitely increased considerably since the 2000s. Overall the studies, the results showed that the most self-determined forms of motivation (intrinsic motivation and identified regulation) were related more strongly to determinants such as autonomy support from coaches and feelings of competence than to other forms of motivation (external and introjected regulation) and…
The purpose of the research was to resolve the motivations of the student athletes towards athletics and academics. ACT (American College Testing) was the focal point of the study, as the researchers decide if there are correlations between ACT scores and motivation, and if ACT scores are great indicators to determine the student-athlete’s motivation. The student-athletes preferred sport and gender are also indicators to verify if there are differences in motivation towards athletics and academics. There is also a comparison between high-profiled and low-profiled sports for each gender to discover facts.…
“Motivation is either intrinsic (from within), meaning the student wants to learn for their own fulfilment, or extrinsic (from without), meaning there may be an external factor motivating the student, e.g. promotion at work” (Gravells, A. p40).…

Being told that you cannot achieve something from another individual is empowering. It gives you a sense of motivation to go out and prove them wrong. As a kid, I was always questioning and challenging theories, especially if I was incorporated in them. This gave me the might to use it as desire to achieve anything I could ever dream of.…
“Motivation is the processes that account for an individual’s intensity, direction, and persistence of effort toward attaining a goal” (Robbins and Judge, 2013, p 202). An effective leader motivates his or her followers or subordinates to perform. Leaders encourage other to be moved by something. The degree of motivation and the type of motivation are both important. The degree of motivation is how much is someone motivated and the type of motivation concerns with what brings that motivation. Both extrinsic and intrinsic motivation are mentioned as catalysts of the explained behavior. Several theories of motivation try to explain the concept and its origins. The purpose of this paper is to explain key ideas of some of the theories as they relate to a team of six members and a mentor who is in a leadership position. The DISC assessment tool will be used to compare and contrast the individuals of the team based on their personalities.…

The biggest blame to all of this is most likely the salaries at which the teachers get paid. There hasn’t been a state pay raise for teachers in eight years leading most teachers to hope for one sooner than later (Doney). The National Education Association reported that there is only three other states in the United States that pay teachers more money in contrast making it harder to attract teachers and keep them in Oklahoma (Cameron). Keeping teachers in Oklahoma is a challenge for most schools being that there are over 1000 teacher openings across Oklahoma with no teachers to fill them (Doney). Raising teachers’ salaries is not going to just bring more teachers in to Oklahoma to teach. But in a survey from 2014 the Oklahoma Council of Public…
