|
aversive - neutral - very desirable
hedonic axiom - organisms direct their behavior to maximize their pleasure and minimize distress neutral outcome preferred to a then a is aversive hedonic and aversive orofacial |

|
What is the purposive approach re motivation?
|
purposive approach- goal direced behavior future oriented, less concerned with the physiology of regulation
origins in philosophy and behavior viewed as good and bad allows look towards future and its consequences |
|
|
what is the regulatory approach
|
emphasis on the body's responses like hunger and pain
-homeostasis - reponse to internal forces to restore internal equilibrium negative feedback system- ingestive behavior system variable set point |
|
