19 1 General introduction regulation, identified regulation and integrated regulation. Intrinsic motivation is the most self-determined motivation and makes a person carry out an activity for personal interest. SDT identifies three basic psychological needs, autonomy, relatedness and competence, that need to be fulfilled and stimulate intrinsic motivation. Figure 1.4 depicts the different states of motivation and the influence of the basic psychological needs. Figure 1.4: The Self-determination Theory (adapted from Ryan and Deci (2000)) External regulation Introjected regulation Identified regulation Intrinsic regulation Integrated regulation Relatedness Competence Autonomy More external More internal Basic psychological needs Extrinsic motivation Nonregulation Intrinsic motivation Amotivation Intrinsic motivation, integrated and identified regulation together are often referred to as ‘autonomous motivation’. Introjected and external regulation together are often referred to as ‘controlled motivation’. In this dissertation we used these concepts of ‘autonomous motivation’ and ‘controlled motivation’, since autonomous motivation is associated with more sustained change and better performance (Ryan & Deci, 2000). Thus, SDT framework can be used to study the process and effects of interprofessional education (Ganotice et al., 2023). SDT has not received a lot of attention in the context of interprofessional education. Visser et al. (2019) used SDT to study students’ motivation for interprofessional collaboration after an experience on a interprofessional education ward. They found an increase in students’ autonomous motivation for interprofessional collaboration directly after their IPE experience. Ganotice et al. (Ganotice et al., 2022; Ganotice et al., 2021) were able to explain variances in behavioural outcomes (e.g. behavioural engagement in an IPE activity) with students’ motivation. The effect of classroom based IPE on students’ motivation and the effect of this motivation on students’ longterm interprofessional collaboration skills has not yet been investigated.
