____ depends on supports for autonomy.
Contexts that use controlling strategies such as salient rewards and punishments or evaluative, selfesteem-hooking pressures are least likely to lead people to ____ activities as their own.
This is not to say that controls don’t work to produce ____ — decades of operant psychology prove that they can.
It is rather that the more salient the external control over a person’s behavior, the more the person is likely to be merely ____ regulated or introjected in his or her actions.
Consequently, the person does not ____ a value or investment in the behaviors, but instead remains dependent on external controls.
Thus, parents who reward, force, or cajole their child to do homework are more likely to have a child who ____ so only when rewarded, cajoled, or forced. The salience of external controls undermines the acquisition of self-responsibility.
Alternatively, parents who supply reasons, show an emotional understanding of difficulties overcoming problems, and use a minimum of external incentives are more ____ to cultivate a sense of willingness and value for work in their child.

The same effect can be found when attention is ____ called to a respondent’s marriage or their health.
