• This study explored the effects of induced drive on both continuous and repetitive hand-dynamometer performance. Induced drive was either related or unrelated to the task. Persistence was measured as the ability to maintain or achieve criterion tension levels over a period of time. The presence of a motivating condition was deleterious to a continuous type of persistence task and beneficial to a repetitive type.
