Psychologists Desi had a fable about:
A group of children frolicking in front of an elderly, sounds a great deal. Over the past few days, the elderly unbearable. So he came out to 10 cents for each child, said to them: "You become very busy so here, I feel a lot younger, thank this money." Children are very happy, the next day still to come , and continue to frolic. Come out to the elderly, to 5 cents for each child. It also can be 5 cents, children are still happily away. On the third day, the elderly only to 2 cents for each child, children with rage, "only 2 cents a day, we know how hard!" They swore to the elderly, they will never play for him !
In this fable, the old man is simple, he will the internal motivation of the children "for their own pleasure and play" into the external motivation "to get cents and play", and he manipulated cents to the external factors, so also manipulated the children's behavior.
Desi effects appear when in life. For example, a child's parents often said: "If you get 100 points in this test, to reward you 100 dollars", "If you can test into the top five to reward you with a new toy," and so on. Parents may not think it is this improper incentives, the child's interest in learning a little bit to cut out.
In learning, parents should guide their children lofty ideals, to promote children's emotional and interest in learning, increase the child's own motivation for learning, help children gain the joy of learning. Reward parents can help is to learn some things, such as books, learning equipment, and some incentives unrelated to learning, then best not to. |
