The Essence of the 3M Model

The 3M Model encompasses three primary dimensions:

• Autonomy: The extent to which individuals perceive their behavior as freely chosen and self-initiated.
  

• Competence: The belief in one's ability to effectively handle tasks and achieve desired outcomes.
  

• Relatedness: The sense of belonging, connection, and support experienced within social relationships.
  

The Power of Intrinsic Motivation

The 3M Model places particular emphasis on the importance of intrinsic motivation. Intrinsic motivation arises from within, driven by a genuine interest in the task itself. It is in contrast to extrinsic motivation, which is driven by external rewards or punishments.

Dr. Vallerand argues that individuals are most likely to engage in behaviors that fulfill their innate needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness. When these needs are met, people experience enhanced well-being, increased creativity, and greater overall satisfaction.

Personality as a Key Ingredient

Personality plays a crucial role in shaping an individual's motivation and behavior. The 3M Model incorporates the Big Five personality traits, which include:

• Extraversion
• Agreeableness
• Conscientiousness
• Neuroticism
• Openness to Experience

The author demonstrates how these personality traits can influence the development of intrinsic motivation and the expression of autonomous, competent, and related behaviors.
