Intrinsic motivation includes personal interest, self-efficacy and achievement motivation, while extrinsic motivation involves personal pursuit of reward and recognition.

4. Social cognitive factors: individuals' cognition, attitudes and beliefs about the social environment and others will also affect the acceptance and effect of ideological and political education.
