On what motivates us: a detailed review of intrinsic v. extrinsic motivation.
Morris LS, Grehl MM, Rutter SB, Mehta M, Westwater ML. Morris LS, et al. Psychol Med. 2022 Jul;52(10):1801-1816. doi: 10.1017/S0033291722001611. Epub 2022 Jul 7. Psychol Med. 2022. PMID: 35796023 Free PMC article. Review.
However, our understanding of the neurocognitive mechanisms that underlie intrinsically motivated behavior remains limited. Dysfunction in intrinsic motivation represents an important trans-diagnostic facet of psychiatric symptomology, but due to a lac …

Optimizing performance through intrinsic motivation and attention for learning: The OPTIMAL theory of motor learning.
Wulf G, Lewthwaite R. Wulf G, et al. Psychon Bull Rev. 2016 Oct;23(5):1382-1414. doi: 10.3758/s13423-015-0999-9. Psychon Bull Rev. 2016. PMID: 26833314 Review.
We propose the OPTIMAL (Optimizing Performance through Intrinsic Motivation and Attention for Learning) theory of motor learning. We suggest that motivational and attentional factors contribute to performance and learning by strengthening the coupling of goal …

Intrinsic motivation in virtual assistant interaction for fostering spontaneous interactions.
Li C, Yanagisawa H. Li C, et al. PLoS One. 2021 Apr 23;16(4):e0250326. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0250326. eCollection 2021. PLoS One. 2021. PMID: 33891650 Free PMC article.
Previous studies either treated motivation as an inseparable concept or focused on non-intrinsic motivation (the motivation to interact with the assistant for utilitarian purposes). ...Results of the first experiment showed that high expectation engend …

Intrinsic motivation, curiosity, and learning: Theory and applications in educational technologies.
Oudeyer PY, Gottlieb J, Lopes M. Oudeyer PY, et al. Prog Brain Res. 2016;229:257-284. doi: 10.1016/bs.pbr.2016.05.005. Epub 2016 Jul 29. Prog Brain Res. 2016. PMID: 27926442 Review.
Then, we discuss how psychology and neuroscience have conceptualized curiosity and intrinsic motivation, studying how the brain can be intrinsically rewarded by novelty, complexity, or other measures of information. ...

The effects of intrinsic motivation on mental fatigue.
Herlambang MB, Cnossen F, Taatgen NA. Herlambang MB, et al. PLoS One. 2021 Jan 4;16(1):e0243754. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0243754. eCollection 2021. PLoS One. 2021. PMID: 33395409 Free PMC article.
To complicate matters, most mental fatigue studies looked exclusively at the effects of extrinsic motivation but not intrinsic motivation. Individuals are said to be extrinsically motivated when they perform a task to attain rewards and avoid punishmen …

Motivation: What have we learned and what is still missing?
Studer B, Knecht S. Studer B, et al. Prog Brain Res. 2016;229:441-450. doi: 10.1016/bs.pbr.2016.07.001. Epub 2016 Sep 16. Prog Brain Res. 2016. PMID: 27926451 Review.
This final chapter deliberates three overarching topics and conclusions of the research presented in this volume: the endurance of the concept of extrinsic vs intrinsic motivation, the importance of considering subjective costs of activities when aiming to understan …

Extrinsic rewards, intrinsic rewards, and non-optimal behavior.
Karayanni M, Nelken I. Karayanni M, et al. J Comput Neurosci. 2022 May;50(2):139-143. doi: 10.1007/s10827-022-00813-z. Epub 2022 Feb 5. J Comput Neurosci. 2022. PMID: 35122189 Review.
Here we explore the evidence that non-optimal behaviors are the consequence of intrinsically motivated actions, related to drives that are different from that of obtaining extrinsic reward. One way of operationally characterizing these drives is by postulating in …
