3.  Is the process by which activates are started, directed,
and continued so that physical or psychological needs
or wants are met.
 Comes from the Latin word movere which means “to
move”
 Motivation is what “moves” people to do the things
they do

4.  Intrinsic – actions are rewarding or satisfying in and
of themselves
Examples:
Participating in a sport because you find the activity
enjoyable
Solving a word puzzle because you find the challenge
fun and interesting
Playing a game because you find it exciting
.

5.  Extrinsic – actions are performed because they lead
some sort of external outcome
Examples:
Studying because you want to get a good grade
Cleaning your room to avoid being reprimanded by your
parents
Participating in a sport in order to win awards
Competing in a contest in order to win a scholarship

6.  Intrinsic
the person's behavior is motivated by an internal
desire to participate in an activity for its own sake.
 Extrinsic
the behavior is motivated by a desire to gain a
reward or avoid a negative outcome.

8. 1. Instinct – the biologically determined and innate
patterns of bahavior that exist in both people and
animals
Example: The animal world is seasonal migration. These
animals do not learn to do this, it is instead an
inborn pattern of behavior.

9.  -an innate, typically fixed pattern of behaviour in animals in response
to certain stimuli
 - Many scientists believed that human beings are both with patterns of
behaviour that are biologically determined than learned
 - Opinions range from 18 to 5759 instincts
 - Proponents of this approach have identified and described wide
variety of instincts, but did have successfully explained the logic that
coincides with the behaviour
 - “fixed action pattern” – a very short to medium length sequence of
actions
 Instinctive-performed without being based upon prior experience
Instinct approach examples:
 Bird migration
 Spider making web
 Sea turtles newly hatched will automatically move toward the ocean

10.  Focuses on the concepts of needs and drives
Need - a requirement of some material (such as food or
water) that is essential for survival of the organism.
Drive - a physiological tension and physical arousal arising
when there is a need that motivates the organism to act in
order to fulfill the need and reduce the tension.
primary drives – those drives that involve needs of the
body such as hunger and thirst
secondary drives – those are learned through experience
or conditioning, such as the need for money or social
approval

11.  This theory also includes the concept of homeostasis,
or the tendency of the to maintain a steady state
Example :
If Lara’s body needs food, she feels hunger and the
state of tension /arousal associated with that need.
She will then seek to restore her homeostasis by eating
something, which is the behavior stimulated to reduce
the hunger drive.

12. – approach to motivation that assumes behavior arises from
physiological needs that cause internal drives to push the
organism to satisfy the need and reduce tension and
arousal.
Example: You need to drink a glass of water in order to
reduce the internal state of thirst.
The problem of this theory, these behaviors are not always
motivated purely by physiological needs.
Example: People often eat even they are not really hungry.

13. – have been highlightened in some theories :
need for achievement,
need for affiliation,
and
need of power.

14.  Three types of needs

Need of Achievement

Need of Affiliation

15.  Stimulus motive – a motive that appears to be unlearned
but causes an increase in stimulation, such as curiosity .
 Theory of motivation in which people are said to have an
optional (best or ideal) level of tension that they seek to
maintain by increasing or decreasing stimulation.
-need for stimulation
- arousal theory suggests people have an optimal level of
tension that they work to maintain
- a moderate level is most commonly sought, but that level
can range from low to high (sensation seeking)

16.  things that attract or lure people into action, most
often due to rewarding properties.
Example:
Motivated to go work each day for the monetary
reward of being paid.

-beginning with the
basic physiological needs and
ending with transcendence needs

20. -the “feeling” aspect of consciousness, characterized by
three elements:
 Conscious experience(feeling)
 Expression which can be seen by others
 Actions by the body( physical arousal)
-is either positive and negative
-affects behavior

21.  When a person experiences an emotion, an arousal is
created by the sympathetic nervous system.
 Facial expression do differ between various emotional
responses. Emotions are difficult to distinguish from
one another on the basis of outward bodily reactions.
 Which parts of the brain are involved in various
aspects of emotions?
amygdala – a small area located within the limbic
system on the side of the brain, is associated with fear
in both humans and animals.

23.  Primary Emotion- are one triggered in response to an
event
love
joy
anger
sad
surprise
fear
 Secondary Emotion- if we experience fear, the secondary
emotion would be; feel threatened or feel angry, depending
on the situation we are experiencing
passion
disgust
shame
irritation
nervousness

24. Negative Emotion - keep your energy and undermine
your effectiveness; lack of desire to do anything.
*exhausted
*obnoxious
*panic
Positive Emotion- that lead one to feel good about
one’s self will lead to an emotionally happy and
satisfied result.
*hopeful
*confident
*peaceful

25.  How do people behave when in the grip of an
emotion?
- there are facial expressions, body movements and
actions that indicate to others how a person feels.
 Facial Expression can vary across different cultures,
although some aspects of facial expression seem to be
universal.
 Charles Darwin-was one of the first to theorize that
emotions were a product of evolution and, therefore,
universal.

26.  Are learned ways of controlling displays of emotion in
social setting.

28.  Giving it a label: anger, disgust, sadness, happiness,
and so on.
 Also called as “ cognitive element”, because the
labelling process is a matter of retrieving memories of
previous similar experiences, perceiving the context of
the emotion, and coming up with a solution- a label.

31.  Common Sense View
 When you become happy, your heart starts beating
faster. First emotion, then physiological activity
 In the stimulus sense of emotion, a stimulus (snarling
dog) leads to an emotion of fear, which then leads to
body arousal( in this case, indicated by shaking)
through the autonomic nervous system (ANS)
“ I’m shaking because I’m afraid”
Stimulus:
First response:
Snarling dog
Conscious fear
Second
response:
ANS arousal

32.  by William James and Carl Lange
 Earliest theory of emotion
 Proposed idea that challenge common sense about
emotion in 1980’s
 In this theory, a stimulus of sort (for example, the
large snarling dog) produces a physiological
reaction. This reaction, which is the arousal of the
“fight-or-flight” sympathetic nervous system
(wanting to run), produces bodily sensations such
as increased heart rate, dry mouth, and rapid
breathing.

34.  By Walter Cannon and Philip Bard
 The emotion and the physiological arousal occur more
or less at the same time.
 The fear and the bodily reaction are, therefore,
experienced at the same time- not one after the other.

35.  Proposed that two things have to happen before the
emotion occurs: the physical arousal and a labeling of
the arousal based on cues from the surrounding
environment. These two things happen at the same
time, resulting in the labeling of the emotion .

36.  Theory of emotion that assumes that facial expressions
provide feedback to the brain concerning the emotion
being expressed, which in turn causes and intensifies
the emotion.
Stimulus:
Snarling dog
First response:
First response:

Second
response:

37.  In this theory, the most important aspect of any
emotional experience is how the person interprets,
or appraises, the stimulus that causes the emotional
reactions.
 a stimulus causes an immediate appraisal( e.g., "The
dog is snarling and not behind a fence, so this is
dangerous”). The cognitive appraisal results in an
emotional response, which is then followed by the
appropriate bodily response.

38. Stimulus:
Snarling dog
First response:
Appraisal of
threat
FEAR
Second
response:
Bodily response
