among students towards other courses. The human motivation is changeable and not

stable it should be considered in mind. Praise incentives should be given more.

very difficult to measure motivation because it can only be felt. As it cannot be touched there is no standardized data on motivation.

Lack of understanding Among the respondents: Most of the respondents are not able to get the standard understanding to know their motivational pattern as a result they become biased in filling of these questionnaires.

Difficulty in Filling: A large number of the respondents needed help in filling these questionnaires.

Lack of Seriousness: Some of the respondents did not attach the required seriousness to the questionnaire.
