I believe the answer is: Mina's intrinsic motivation decreased.

Intrinsic motivation refers to the type of motivation that is based by internal rewards.

Things that could be considered as internal rewards would include: Personal interest/love, Ambition for the future, desire to maintain good reputation, desire to be admired by others, etc.
