AP Psychology 1.2 Motivation and Emotion

their rooms and hear potential Answer anyone you peer pressure

russian cleanliness paint all right Well first let's take a

look at what the incentive theory actually is Incentive theorists

believe that behaviour is motivated by something that's personally encouraging

or rewarding like how we promised ourselves an entire pizza

If we finished this questions so would an incentive theorists

suggest answered a well as nice is a clean room

and a feeling of safety can be they don't really

provide enough motivation for a kid to clean their room

Most kids generally need something a little more rewarding in

order Teo clean a messy room behind most shmoop dude

you should see my desk Alright tween cross off How

wouldn't recommend peer pressure Yes it's a type of motivation

but it isn't based on any praise or reward instead

Involved the urge to fit in and look cool which

we're pretty sure it can be accomplished by eating an

entire so we can eliminate be you see what we're

looking for Well not quite This type of motivation would

most likely be suggested by n arousal theorist again there's

No reward being offered in this scenario Just that crazy

adrenaline rush we all get when we start cleaning our

rooms We don't all get that well never mind It

looks like we can sweep away See and that brings

us to answer d self actualization is the desire for

self fulfillment and the need to reach one's potential Well

unless you're the buddha room cleaning it seems pretty unlikely

that you would find self fulfillment vacuuming and dusting It's

also pretty doubtful that an incentive theorists would suggest motivating

a kid to clean their room with a concept of

self actualization leaving us with each paying them to clean

their room pretty straight forward right And incentive theorists would

suggest that motivating kids by giving them money a k

a reward a k and incentive kids like money All

right everyone likes money gold hard cash and exchange from

picking up some dirty socks sounds like a good deal 00:02:14.91 --> [endTime] to us
