But through unfailing commitment and superb attendance, that changed.
In comparison with the infrequent attenders, frequent attenders more often had intrinsic motivation to attend (e.g. enjoyed attending), and named more self-determined extrinsic motivations to attend, such as commitment to attendance and wanting to quit.
The original scale was a 23-item scale which consists of seven constructs, namely the following: general motivation, burnout, job satisfaction, intrinsic job satisfaction, organisational commitment, conscientiousness and timeliness and attendance [ 20].
31 Patrick et al 32 and Wilbroad et al 33 developed a tool to measure health worker motivation and revealed that organisational commitment, conscientiousness, intrinsic job satisfaction, timeliness and attendance were the major determinants of higher motivation.
Furthermore, the PACT condition may have offered a more novel and interesting intervention that served to enhance interest and commitment and thus higher levels of attendance.
It consists of 10 statements relating to three latent factors of motivation: organisational commitment, job satisfaction (including general motivation and burnout) and conscientiousness (including timeliness and attendance).
Interestingly, only some of those frequent attenders who reported this also reported enjoyment of the course or intrinsic motivation, thus commitment to attendance appears to be a powerful motivation in and of itself.

Talks about low W.N.B.A. salaries and attendance.
Only one of these participants who reported going out of the way for the course stated their commitment to attendance (see section on Motivation).
