Autonomy

Benoit de Bellefroid

Impact on Intrinsic Motivation

When people feel autonomous, they perceive their actions as self-endorsed and aligned with their own values, interests, and choices. This sense of ownership over their behavior leads to greater enjoyment and intrinsic motivation. When you feel that you're doing something because you want to—not because you’re being forced or externally controlled—you’re more likely to engage in that activity out of pure interest.

Example: A person who chooses to learn a new instrument because they love music, rather than because they feel pressured to impress others, will feel more intrinsically motivated.
