… unless the person works voluntarily, that is.

    i do think that “voluntary” is a pretty clear term. would you still do it if it didn’t cost you anything, and it also didn’t get you any physical reward?

      Define “physical reward”?

      I would argue that the good feeling from a well done job counts as a physical reward 🙂 and is a necessary motivational feedback. If you mean monetary or resource awards, I agree.

        That good feeling is a psychological reward. It is not physical. You cannot hold it, touch it, or give it to someone else for doing a job.

          Eh, it impacts my physical body, those hormones exist. How about extrinsic awards, as opposed to intrinsic awards?
