Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2017/Overjustification effect

Format tips
Hi Edward :) A quick tip that might be helpful: if you want to 'quick start' your chapter check the instructions in the purple box on the Book chapter - Author guidelines page. This adds template material and creates an initial structure, which is what I've done so far to get started on my chapter. Hope this helps! U3012363 (discuss • contribs) 02:29, 14 August 2017 (UTC)

Suggestions
Hi Edward, looks like you have a solid outline! When you get to fleshing out the attribution theory part, you might want to include Bem's self-perception theory as another way to understand the overjustification effect - it suggests we construct a concept of who we are by making self-attributions i.e. we infer our own attitudes from our own behaviour. E.g. if we go running rather than sleeping in, we infer that we must like running. If you are doing social psych - this is out of the textbook (p111-112). In case you're not - it also mentions a couple of other references that might be useful: Lepper, M. R., Greene, D., & Nisbett, R. E. (1973). ''Undermining children's intrinsic interest with extrinsic reward: A test of the" overjustification" hypothesis. Journal of Personality and social Psychology, 28'', 129. Condry, J. (1977). ''Enemies of exploration: Self-initiated versus other-initiated learning. Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 35'', 459. --u3122707 (discuss • contribs) 03:46, 8 September 2017 (UTC)

Multimedia references feedback
Hey. Having the multimedia references on the page instead of in the video was such a good idea. I wish it had occurred to me! Nice one. --U3118754 (discuss • contribs) 01:10, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
