Theories of Motivation:

1) Instinct Theory - Evolutionarily Programmed

2) Arousal Theory - Maintain optimum energy

-Yerke-Dodson law of social facilitation - U-shaped function between arousal & performancy

3) Drive Reduction Theory - eliminate states of tension

-secondary drive - drives unrelated to biological processes, stem from learning

-Negative feedback loops - maintain homeostasis & shutoff @ homeostasis

-primary drives - food/water/warmth/homeostasis

-drives - Internal states of tension that activate particular behaviors focused on goals

Need Based Theories

4) Maslow's hierarchy of needs:

-physiological(survive)::bottom

-Safety

-Love/belonging

-Esteem

-Self actualization::top

5) Self Determination Theory - Emphasizes 3 universal needs; Maslow Heirarchy

-Autonomy - Control of actions/ideas

-Competence - Complete/excel difficult tasks

-Relatedness - feel accepted/wanted in relationships

6) Incentive Theory - desire to pursue rewards

7) Expectancy Value Theory - individual % success/how much you want to succeed

8) Opponent Process Theory - body will counteract effects of drugs

-tolerance - decrease in perceived drug effect over time
