View of motivation |
- Holistic Approach (the whole person is motivated) - Motivation is complex - A person's behavior may spring from several separate motives - People are continually motivated by one need or another - All people everywhere are motivated by the same basic need - Needs are arranged in a hierarchy |
|
|
Hierarchy of needs |
- Lower level needs has a prepotency (prerequisite) over a higher needs: they must be satisfied or mostly satisfied before activating the higher needs - Conative needs - Needs that has a motivational character - 5 needs 1.) Physiological (LO) 2.) Safety and SECURITY (LO) 3.) Love and Belongingness (LO) 4.) Esteem needs 5.) Self actualization |
|

|
|
General discussions of needs |
1.) reversed order of needs - usually more apparent than real. Some seemingly obvious deviation of needs are not variations at all Sometimes self actualization ( creativity) may take precedence over safety and physiological needs. 2. Unmotivated behavior - even all behaviour have cause, some behaviors are not motivated. Not all determinants are motive 3. Expressive and coping behaviors - E: often as an end in itself and serves no purpose than to be. C: is ordinarily conscious, effortful, learned and determined by the external environment. Is motivated by some deficit needs 4. Deprivation of needs - lack of satisfaction to some kind of needs can lead to psychopathology - Results in malnutrition, fatigue, loss of energy, obsession with sex and so on * metapathology - absence of values, lack of fulfillment, and the loss of meaning in life 5. Instinctoid nature of needs - Some needs are innately determined eventhough they can be modified by learning - produces frustration and psychopathology - is persistent, and satisfaction will lead to psychological health - is species specific - can be molded, inhibited and or altered by environmental influences 6. Differences between the lower and higher level of needs LLN. HLN - necessary for INFANTS. - Phylogenetic and children. - more happiness - Temporary happiness - more peak EXP's -subjectively desirable |

|
|
Values of self actualizers |
- B VALUES (Being values) 14 values Truth Goodness Beauty Wholeness Aliveness Uniqueness Perfection Completion Justice and order Simplicity Richness and totality Effortless Ness Humor Autonomy metamotivation - the motivation of self actualized - Expressive behaviors associated with the B- Values |
