  3. Early Motivation Theories Instinct Theory: a complex, inherited behavior that is rigidly patterned throughout a species. What types of inherited, preprogrammed, and/or complex behaviors are found across human and animal species? Salmon and penguins returning to their birthplace Baby rooting

  4. Drive-Reduction Theory • The idea that a physiological need creates an aroused tension state (a drive) that motivates an organism to satisfy the need. • Homeostasis an organisms natural tendency to maintain a steady internal state. If we are water deprived, our thirst drives us to drink and to restore the body’s normal state For example, we reduce the NEED to eat by eating.

  5. Incentive Theory • An incentive may be defined as an external goal that has the capacity to motivate behavior. This does not mean that it will always motivate behavior, only that it can.

  6. Arousal Theory • Sometimes we do not seek homeostasis. • Sometimes we seek arousal. • Our needs go beyond reducing drives. Yerkes-Dodson Law: The theory that a degree of psychological arousal helps performance, but only to a point. Best of eXtreme Sport https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxS8EUxmlx8

  8. Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs

  9. Each group will be given the Maslow hierarchy of needs worksheet and will work on it together and then we will go over the answers. (10 minutes) • Break into groups Each group should make a collage of Maslow’s Hierarchy of needs. Look though the magazines for pictures that illustrate the needs that correspond to the hierarchy levels and then glue them on a piece of paper. To fulfill our incentive theory the best one will get bonus points on their exam. 10pts. (You have 20 minutes go fast) • Your homework is to create a poem using Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. Remind me to give you some examples before you leave today. (Yeah that is on your own time)

  10. Hunger: What physiological factors and environmental factors control hunger? • Washburn’s studies showed hunger was partially related to the stomach. • But those with their stomachs removed still feel hunger.

  11. Hunger: What physiological factors and environmental factors control hunger? • There are some key substances in your body and then to your brains' control of these substances: • Glucose: form of sugar circulates throughout your body. Run low on glucose and you will feel hungry. Glucose is a major sources of energy for your body. • Insulin: This hormone allows your cells to use glucose for energy or convert it to fat. When levels of insulin go up, glucose levels go down. • Leptin: This protein is –produced by bloated fat cells, which send out a “stop eating” message. Artificially increased leptin levels in mice stimulate activity and reduce eating. • Orexin: hunger-triggering hormone is produced by the hypothalamus. When glucose levels drop, orexin levels rise and we will feel hungry.

  12. The Culture Aspect of Hunger • What psychological and cultural factors influence hunger? • Americans see obesity as a weakness or a sign of laziness. African-Americans and Latinos tend to be less concerned about weight and more accepting of those who are overweight. Culture also affects taste. We shun foods that we have not been exposed to. We consume more food when eating with others than when eating alone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDw471Xqm0k Man v. Food: Stuffed Pizza Challenge
