Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Self-determination theory suggests that intrinsic motivations, or motivations that come from within oneself, lead to greater freedom and autonomy compared to extrinsic motivations, which are based on external rewards or pressures. Therefore, people who act based on intrinsic motivations are considered freer than those with extrinsic motivations. Low levels of meaning and high levels of meaning are not directly related to freedom in the context of self-determination theory.
