  2. Motivation Categories • Needs—Instinct Theory • Drives—Drive Reduction • Motives—Maslow • Incentives—Cognitive— • Bandura, Rotter, Kelly

  3. Early Perspectives on Motivation • Motivation was INSTINCTUAL • Darwin—Survival • James/McDougall—Social Instincts • Examples—Modest, Kind, etc. • Why? • Criticism???? • Drive Reduction—Hull (We are motivated to reduce our drives and maintain homeostasis) • Criticism????

  4. Early Perspectives on Motivation • Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs—must fulfill basic needs before you can move onto other needs and to eventually become self actualized. • Most never become self actualized because other needs get in the way. Ex.— • Examples of Self Actualized People:

  5. Are you self actualized? • Acceptance and Realism • Focused on Helping Others • Spontaneous—open and unconventional • Need for Autonomy and Solitude • Appreciation of the World—Inspired • Peak Experiences—Intense Joy, Wonder, Awe

  6. Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs

  7. Primary Physiological MotivesMaintain Homeostasis • Hunger—Hypothalamus (LH vs. VMH) • External vs. Internal • External Eating starts @ 3 years • Glucose drop—hunger—cut stomach? • Eat Slow—20 min. & Learn to like foods 17 times • Set Point Theory—Can you change your set point? • Garcia Effect • Eating Disorders—Anorexia, Bulemia, Obesity • BMI handout • Cultural Differences • Body Image Survey

  8. Primary Drives • Thirst Drive • You need to drink water or you will die • Can’t sham it like with food • Cells need hydration • Can go almost 2 weeks without food, but only a couple days without water

  9. Survey Scale of 1 to 5—1 being strongly disagree and 5 being strongly agree • Teens who engage in sexual intercourse tend to stay together longer. • The birth control pill is 100% effective and prevents STDs or STIs • I would be comfortable having a friend with HIV • People can be born gay. • Expectations about sex and marriage are the same for men and women.

  10. Survey Scale of 1 to 5—1 being strongly disagree and 5 being strongly agree 6. Abstinence only education is the most effective program in preventing teen pregnancy and STDs or STIs 7. I am comfortable talking to my parents about sex. 8. My parents are the ones who gave me the most information about sex. 9. Condoms are 95% effective in preventing pregnancy and STDs or STIs. 10. The country with the highest rate of teen pregnancy is the US.

  11. What are the main reasons American teens get pregnant more, have more abortions, and suffer from more STIs? • Study shows ignorance, guilt, lack of communication about birth control, alcohol use, and mass media norms. • STIs are growing fastest amongst people under 25 with teen girls being the most vulnerable. • 4 factors were identified in study that linked to sexual restraint—intelligence, religious activity, father prescence, and participation in community service.

  12. Primary Drives • Sex Drive--Hypothalamus • Sexual Response Cycle— • Masters and Johnson • Excitement, Plateau, Orgasm, Resolution • Kinsey • Hormones—Estrogen and Testosterone • Levels affect libido--sex drive • Gender Differences—why to a partner! • Sexual Coercion—is learned, not a drive • Sexual Orientation—Simon Levay • Hypothalamus • Disc uss with a partner!

  14. Stand up--Review Time • How would the drive reduction theory explain someone who takes a higher paying job that requires much more work and time away from home? • What aspects of hunger are controlled by the lateral and ventromedial hypothalamus? • The balanced physiological state we are driven to attain by satisfying our needs is called?

  15. Stimulus Motives—Unlearned, but not necessary for survival • Exploration and Curiosity • What are people like to have a high need to exploration and curiosity? • Survey • Naturally want to explore our environment • How do we learn not to? • Naturally curious—think of little kids who ask lots of questions • How do we learn not to be curious and not ask lots of questions?

  16. Stimulus Motives—Unlearned, but not necessary for survival • Manipulation • We want to experience things first hand—touch, etc. • If that is the case, then what is the best way to learn?

  17. Stimulus Motives—Unlearned, but not necessary for survival • Contact—Harlow • Infants need contact to flourish • Infants without contact develop a lot of problems

  18. Stimulus Motives—Unlearned, but not necessary for survival • Arousal—motivated for stimulation • Optimal Arousal—There is an optimal level of arousal for certain tasks • Yerkes-Dodson Law • Easy—High Arousal • Complex—Low Arousal • Sensory Deprivation-- We don’t like a non-aroused state, so we create stimulation

  19. Review Time • What did Masters and Johnson add to the field of psychology? • Why were Kinsey and LeVay treated so poorly? • What hormone drives libido? • What is the Yerkes-Dodson curve referred to as? • What do we tend to do when we are sensory deprived?
