Abstract

The purpose of this research was to analyze the extrinsic and intrinsic factors of motivation from the perspective of the "Rafael María Baralt" National Experimental University. of the Trujillo State. To support the variable, the theoretical contributions of authors such as Chiavenato (2009), Robbins (2009), Hernández (2010), among others, were considered. The development of the study was carried out through a descriptive methodology with a non-experimental, transectional field design, with the population being the 86 employees who work in the institution, to whom a population census was applied. To collect the information, an instrument was developed that measured the content motivation of 11 items with a Likert-type scale of alternatives. Content validity was performed using the three (3) expert judgment technique. The reliability calculation was carried out with the application of Cronbach's Alpha coefficient, obtaining an index of 0.80, which indicates that the instrument built is highly reliable. Descriptive statistical analysis was used, projecting as a result for the motivation variable the absence of an adequate salary tabulation as well as certain deficiencies that affect the work environment, in turn a certain degree of authoritarianism was detected, evidencing the insufficient participation of the personnel in the management, the which is an exclusive task of the directors of the institution. An action plan is recommended to strengthen the work environment.
