Abstract:
The article explores the concept of intrinsic motivation. Based on the analysis of three economic approaches, it was determined that intrinsic motivation in them refers to different things due to the different psychological theories used. The results show that if there are several and fundamentally different psychological theories of the same phenomenon, the use of their ideas in economic analysis is hardly simply a matter of direct pragmatic choice among the various tools in the economists toolbox.
