It can also be described as being persistent despite the building up subjective fatigue.<ref name="author"/> This is the ability to push through to the end for a greater or bigger reward. The more significant or more rewarding the incentive, the more the individual is willing to do to get to the end of a task.<ref>{{cite web |url = http://classweb.uh.edu/eisenberger/learned-industriousness/ |title = Learned Industriousness β Dr. Eisenberger |website = classweb.uh.edu |language = en-US |access-date = 2018-12-04 }}</ref> This is one of the reasons that college students will go on to graduate school{{Citation needed|date=November 2020}}.
