The term “motivation” is derived from the Latin term movere, which means “to move” (Baron, Henley, Mc Gibbon & Mc Carthy, 2002). Steers et al. (2004) mentioned that motivation is a process through which a person’s efforts are energized, directed, and sustained towards attaining a specific goal.

studies I have found that behaviors that bring about positive consequences have a greater likelihood of being repeated than behaviors that bring about negative consequences. This is known as operant conditioning, the shaping of behaviors by providing rewards to reinforce desired behaviors and providing punishment for undesired behaviors.

My focus is on my relationship with my best friend. We have been best friends for a while, coming up on nine years here at the end of the semester. Though we have been best friends for so long, here recently we have had a few instances where we have felt distant and disconnected from one another.

The most recent event…

It is challenging because what works for one particular student might not work for another. Teachers have to get creative when making these behavior plans to fit students individualized needs. The first step when creating a behavior plan for a special needs student is…

SOC 400 has been a very interesting class. I have learned several things from the text as well as from the discussion posts with classmates. The first thing that really surprised me was the tone in text towards management. From chapter 1’s description of the history of worker exploitation, chapter 3 talking about bullying by supervisors, and chapter 5 talking about work overload among new grads, I thought the text painted a very negative picture of management’s role in the sociology of the…
