The results of the recent studies concerning the impact of psychological factors
on the school success show that, in average, only 50% of the success rate could be
ascribed to developmental level of intelligence, while the remainder of the variable is
saturated with factors of non-intellectual nature. Among the factors unconditioned by
intellectual characteristics, the special role in motivation for effective studying is
played by motivation for learning - especially the intrinsic one. It is understood that,
when it comes to physical education, the intrinsic motivation sources are in fact primary
sources, especially if we are striving to maintain motivation at the necessary level
for a longer period. The process of development and maintenance of intrinsic motivation
is of vital importance, particularly due to the fact that absenteeism or inactivity
in physical education classes is becoming increasingly pronounced among students in
higher grades of elementary and high schools. It should be borne in mind that the number
of children spending most of their time in sitting position in front of their computers
or TV sets is increasing on a daily basis. Consequently, we have higher incidence
of postural deformities in elementary school-age children. Development and shaping of
intrinsic motivation in terms of increasing willingness to do physical exercise systematically
and continuously could be a means of diminishing the above-mentioned problems. intrinsic motivation, development, physical education
