7 Main Idea Psychologists explain motivation and why we experience it in different ways through instinct, drive-reduction, incentive, and cognitive theories of motivation. Section 1-Main Idea

8 Vocabulary motivation extrinsic motivation instincts intrinsic motivation need drive homeostasis incentive Section 1-Key Terms

9 Objectives Describe four theories of motivation. Discuss the difference between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. Section 1-Objectives

10 Which emotion motivates you the most? A. Fear B. Love 0% D A 0% A B C 0% D C D. Guilt A. B. C. 0% D. B C. Desire Section 1-Polling Question

11 Theories of Motivation Motivation Psychologists infer motivation from goaldirected behavior. Section 1

12 Theories of Motivation (cont.) Theories regarding motivation: Instinct Drive-reduction Incentive Cognitive Section 1

13 Which theory do you think best explains motivation? A. Instinct theory B. Drive-reduction theory 0% D A 0% A B C 0% D C D. Cognitive A. B. C. 0% D. B C. Incentive theory Section 1

14 Instinct Theory William McDougall proposed that humans were motivated by a variety of instincts. Instincts are innate tendencies that determine behavior. William James proposed that humans have instincts such as cleanliness, curiosity, parental love, sociability, and sympathy. Section 1

15 Instinct Theory (cont.) However, instincts do not explain behavior; they simply label behavior. Section 1

16 Which psychologist used the instinct theory to explain motivation? A. James B. McDougall 0% D A 0% A B C 0% D C D. Neither A. B. C. 0% D. B C. Both Section 1

17 Drive-Reduction Theory The thing that motivates us starts with a need that leads to a drive. Need Drive Section 1

18 Drive-Reduction Theory (cont.) Drive-reduction theory states that physiological needs drive an organism to act in either random or habitual ways. Biological needs drive an organism to act, and the organism strives to maintain homeostasis. Section 1

19 Drive-Reduction Theory (cont.) Clark Hull suggested that all human motives are extensions of basic biological needs. Harry Harlow and others doubted Hull and proved that other factors, such as pleasure, also play a role. They conducted experiments using baby monkeys and surrogate mothers. Section 1

20 Do you think disrupting your homeostasis can be pleasurable? A. Yes B. No 0% C A 0% A. A B. B C.0%C B C. Not sure Section 1

21 Incentive Theory Incentive People are motivated to obtain positive incentives and to avoid negative incentives. The cognitive expectations of humans also guide their behavior. Section 1

22 Which drive motivates you the most? A. Hunger B. Sleep C. Keeping warm 0% D A B C 0% D C A 0% A. B. C. 0% D. B D. Having fun Section 1

23 Cognitive Theory Cognitive psychologists seek to explain motivation by looking at forces inside and outside of us that energize us to move. According to them, we act in particular ways at particular times as a result of extrinsic and intrinsic motivations. Section 1

24 Cognitive Theory (cont.) Extrinsic motivation Intrinsic motivation Sometimes we engage in an activity because of both types of motivation. Overjustification effect: when people are given more extrinsic motivation than necessary to perform a task, their intrinsic motivation declines. Section 1

25 Do you think saving money for a car is an extrinsic or intrinsic motivation? A. Extrinsic B. Intrinsic 0% C A 0% A. A B. B C.0%C B C. Both Section 1

26 Section 1-End

27 Main Idea Much of life is spent trying to satisfy biological and social needs. Biological needs are physiological requirements that we must fulfill to survive, whereas social needs are those that are learned through experience. Section 2-Main Idea

28 Vocabulary lateral hypothalamus (LH) ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH) fundamental needs psychological needs self-actualization needs Section 2-Key Terms

29 Objectives Describe the biological and social needs of humans. Explain Maslow s hierarchy of needs. Section 2-Objectives

30 Do you think it is important to be successful in school? A. Yes B. No 0% C A 0% A. A B. B C.0%C B C. Not sure Section 2-Polling Question

31 Biological Motives Some behavior is determined by the internal, or physiological, state of the organism. The nervous system is constructed in such a way that dramatic variations in blood sugar, water, oxygen, salt, or essential vitamins lead to changes in behavior designed to return the body to a condition of chemical balance, or homeostasis. Some Biological and Social Needs Section 2

32 Biological Motives (cont.) Several of the drives that motivate behavior are homeostatic, such as hunger. Your body requires food to grow, repair itself, and to store reserves. Section 2

33 Biological Motives (cont.) Lateral hypothalamus (LH) Ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH) The glucostatic theory the hypothalamus monitors the amount of glucose, or ready energy, available in the blood. Set-point the weight around which your day-to-day weight tends to fluctuate. Section 2

34 Biological Motives (cont.) The hypothalamus interprets at least three kinds of information: The amount of glucose entering the cells of your body. Your set-point. Your body temperature. Section 2

35 Biological Motives (cont.) Other factors tied to hunger: Psychosocial hunger factors external cues that can affect eating, such as where, when, and what we eat. Obesity a genetic component may predispose some people to obesity. Percentage of Overweight Americans Section 2

36 Biological Motives (cont.) Stanley Schachter and his colleagues conducted studies to prove that overweight people respond to external cues, while normal-weight people respond to internal cures. Section 2

37 Do you feel that you only eat when you are hungry, or that you are also affected by external cues? A. Internal cues B. External cues 0% D A 0% A B C 0% D C D. None of the above B C. Both A and B A. B. C. 0% D. Section 2

38 Social Motives Social motives are learned from our interactions with other people. The achievement motive concerns the desire to set challenging goals and to persist in trying to reach those goals despite obstacles, frustrations, and setbacks. Section 2

39 Social Motives (cont.) David McClelland measured achievement motivation using the Thematic Apperception Test (TAT). 83% of the entrepreneurs scored high in achievement, but only 21% of the nonentrepreneurs scored that high. Section 2

40 Social Motives (cont.) Other people are motivated by a fear of failure. People display this fear when they choose easy tasks offering assured success or impossible tasks with no chance of success. They often find excuses to explain their poor performance. Section 2

41 Social Motives (cont.) Some people also have a fear of success. Matina Horner conducted a study showing that success involves deep conflicts for some people. Although, it is very difficult to define success or to tell whether a person who does not try something is afraid of success or failure. Section 2

42 Social Motives (cont.) Other theories: J.W. Atkinson developed an expectancyvalue theory to explain goal-directed behavior. Competency theory too easy a task or too difficult a task means we do not learn anything about how competent we are. Your Performance Section 2

43 Social Motives (cont.) Abraham Maslow believed that all human beings need to feel competent to win approval and recognition, and to sense that they have achieved something. He believed that some needs take precedence over others and that achieving one level of satisfaction releases new needs and motivations. Maslow s Hierarchy of Needs Section 2

44 Social Motives (cont.) Maslow placed achievement motivation in the context of a hierarchy of needs: Physiological needs (a fundamental need) Safety needs (a fundamental need) Belongingness and love needs (a psychological need) Esteem needs (a psychological need) The need to fulfill one s potential (a self-actualization need) Section 2

45 Achieving goals, feeling competent, and gaining approval and recognition would all under which need in Maslow s hierarchy? A. Physiological needs 0% D A D. Esteem needs 0% A B C 0% D C C. Belongingness and love needs A. B. C. 0% D. B B. Safety needs Section 2

47 Main Idea All emotions consist of three parts the physical, cognitive, and behavioral aspects. Theories of emotion propose that emotions result from physical changes and/or mental processes. Section 3-Main Idea

48 Vocabulary emotion Section 3-Key Terms

49 Objectives Give examples of the physiological theories of emotion. Explain the cognitive theorists approach to the study of emotion. Section 3-Objectives

50 Do you consider yourself to be an emotional person? A. Very much so B. Somewhat 0% D A 0% A B C 0% D C D. Not at all A. B. C. 0% D. B C. Not very much so Section 3-Polling Question

51 Emotions We use the words drive or motivation to emphasize the needs, desires, and mental calculations that lead to goal-directed behavior. We use the words emotion or affect to stress the feelings associated with these decisions and activities. Section 3

52 Emotions (cont.) Emotional intelligence is the ability to perceive, imagine, and understand emotions and to use that information in decision making. Section 3

53 What is the ability to perceive, imagine, and understand emotions? A. Emotional intelligence B. Drive 0% D A 0% A B C 0% D C D. Affect A. B. C. 0% D. B C. Motivation Section 3

54 Expressing Emotions Emotion The Range of Emotions Section 3

55 Expressing Emotions (cont.) Emotions result from four occurrences: You must interpret some stimulus. You have a subjective feeling, such as fear or happiness. You experience physiological responses, such as an increased heart rate. You display observable behavior, such as smiling or crying. Section 3

56 Expressing Emotions (cont.) All emotions have three parts: The physical how the emotion affects the physical arousal of an individual. The behavioral outward expression of the emotion, such as body language, hand gestures, and tone of voice. The cognitive how we think about or interpret a situation, which affects our emotions. Paul Ekman Section 3

57 Expressing Emotions (cont.) Numerous studies have shown that certain basic facial expressions are innate or part of our biological inheritance. Learning is also an important factor in emotional expression. James Averill believes that many of our everyday emotional reactions are the result of social expectations and consequences. Threatening Elements Section 3

58 Expressing Emotions (cont.) Theories of emotions: The James-Lange Theory Facial Feedback Theory The Cannon-Bard Theory The Schachter-Singer Experiment Opponent-Process Theory Theories of Emotion Fear and Relief Section 3

59 In which theory does your experience activate the hypothalamus first? A. James-Lang B. Facial Feedback 0% D A 0% A B C 0% D C D. Schachter-Singer A. B. C. 0% D. B C. Cannon-Bard Section 3

61 Some Biological and Social Needs Whereas biological needs are physiological requirements critical to our survival, we acquire social needs through experience and learning. Figure 1

62 Percentage of Overweight Americans Overweight people face increased risk for heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, clogged arteries, adult onset diabetes, and early death. Figure 2

63 Your Performance The Yerkes-Dodson law says that your performance on a task is an interaction between the level of physiological arousal and the difficulty of the task. So on difficult tasks, you do better if your arousal level is low. Figure 3

64 Maslow s Hierarchy of Needs According to Maslow, only after satisfying the lower level of needs is a person free to progress to the ultimate need of self-actualization. Figure 4

65 The Range of Emotions Emotions are subjective feelings, so psychologists cannot agree on how many emotions exist or the exact impact of a specific emotion. Figure 5

66 Threatening Elements When people from various cultures were asked to identify the threatening shapes in each pair, they consistently selected the triangular and diagonal elements. Figure 6

67 Theories of Emotion These theories of emotion differ depending on the relationship of physiological change and cognitive interpretation of emotion. Figure 7

68 Fear and Relief According to the opponent-process theory, when the stimulus for one emotion is removed, you feel the opposite emotion. Figure 8

69 Paul Ekman 1934 The face is the primary site for the display of emotions. Together with the voice, it may tell the listener how the speaker feels about what is being said... Profile
