AB  - OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether there are differences in learning outcomes 
      after the application of self-determined (intrinsic motivation) or mandatory 
      (extrinsic motivation) use of e-learning units in an undergraduate radiology 
      internship. METHODS: 96 medical students undergoing a one-week radiology 
      internship were included in this study. Ten electronic cases (e-cases) were 
      created for a blended learning approach. The e-learning environment was accessed 
      on a self-determined (group B; n=32) or a mandatory basis (group C; n=32). A 
      group without access to the e-learning environment served as control group (group 
      A; n=32). Usage parameters of the e-cases were recorded. Results of a pre- and 
      post-course assessment were used to quantitatively analyze learning outcomes. 
      RESULTS: In group B 19/32 (59%) students processed at least one e-case, while in 
      group C all students processed at least one e-case. There was a trend towards a 
      higher improvement in knowledge in students exposed to a blended learning 
      approach (group B: 13.7%; group C: 15.4%) than in the control group (group A: 
      8.5%; p=0.5356). Group C processed (p=0.0093) and passed (p=0.0078) significantly 
      more e-cases, than with group B. There were no significant differences in the 
      mean time per e-case and the total time on e-cases between both groups. 
      CONCLUSION: Extrinsic motivation results in a more extensive use of e-learning 
      units in an undergraduate radiology internship when compared with intrinsic 
      motivation. The choice of the teaching strategy has a bigger influence on 
      learning outcomes than the type of motivation, highlighting the need for 
      qualified medical teachers.
