Question

which scenario is an example of extrinsic motivation?
○ the doorbell rang, but manny didnt answer; he felt too exhausted for visitors.
○ when the temperature suddenly dropped, lacey ran into a heated shop to warm up.
○ after she cheated on the exam, crystals guilt finally drove her to confess to her teacher.
○ kenjis love of animals led him to volunteer at the wildlife rescue organization every weekend.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

To determine the example of extrinsic motivation, we first recall that extrinsic motivation comes from external rewards or pressures (not internal desires/feelings). Let's analyze each option:

  • The doorbell scenario: Manny not answering is due to his internal state (exhaustion) – not extrinsic.
  • Temperature drop: Lacey running to a heated shop is to satisfy a physical need (warmth) from the external environment, but is this extrinsic motivation? Wait, extrinsic motivation is about external rewards (like money, praise, avoiding punishment) or external pressures. Wait, no—wait, let's re - check. Wait, the options: Wait, the fourth option (Kenji) is intrinsic (love of animals). The third option (Crystal) is guilt (internal). Wait, maybe I misread. Wait, the options are:
  1. The doorbell rang... (internal - exhaustion)
  2. When temperature dropped... (Lacey running to heated shop: this is to satisfy a physiological need from external cold, but is this extrinsic motivation? Wait, no, extrinsic motivation is motivation from external factors like rewards, punishments, social approval. Wait, maybe the second option (Lacey) is about responding to an external condition for a physical need, but maybe the intended answer is none? Wait, no, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, let's re - evaluate:
  • Extrinsic motivation: motivation that comes from outside the individual, such as rewards (money, grades, praise) or avoiding punishment.
  • Intrinsic motivation: from internal desires (interest, enjoyment, personal values).

Now, let's re - analyze each option:

  • Option 1: Manny not answering door: internal (exhaustion) – not extrinsic.
  • Option 2: Lacey running to heated shop: external temperature causes her to seek warmth. But is this motivation? It's a response to a physical need. But maybe this is the closest to extrinsic as it's an external factor (cold) driving the action. Wait, but maybe the question has a typo, or I misread. Wait, the third option: Crystal's guilt (internal, so intrinsic - like moral guilt is internal). The fourth option: Kenji's love (intrinsic). So the only one that could be considered (even if a bit of a stretch) is the second option: "When the temperature suddenly dropped, Lacey ran into a heated shop to warm up." Because the external factor (cold temperature) is driving her action to get warmth (an external - sourced need, though physiological). But maybe the intended answer is this option. Wait, but maybe I made a mistake. Alternatively, maybe the question's options were mis - presented. But based on the given options, the second option (Lacey running to heated shop) is the one driven by an external condition (temperature drop) to satisfy a need, which is more extrinsic than the others (which are internal: exhaustion, guilt, love).

Answer:

The option "When the temperature suddenly dropped, Lacey ran into a heated shop to warm up." (assuming this is one of the radio - button options, likely the second one in the list)
