incentive theory: positive and negative environmental stimuli that motivate behavior
physiological vs psychological:
hunger drives us to eat
fatigue drives us to rest
Drive Reduction Theory: a physical need that creates a drive to satisfy the need
ex: money reduces other drives such as hunger because you now have money to buy food
Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs: pyramid of human needs, each need must be met successfully to move up; ends with self actualization
Hunger Drive/Weight Disorders: both internal and external reasons for hunger (anorexia, bulimia, and obesity)
Thirst Drive: reduction of fluid in and outside of cell caused by sodium
Lateral Hypothalamus: causes you to feel hunger
Ventromedial Hypothalamus: causes you to feel full
Sexual Response Cycle: four stages of  sexual responding- excitement plateau, orgasm, resolution
Psychology of Sex- what motivates sex? men and women respond to the same stimuli
Sexual Disorders- problems that consistently impair sexual functioning
Sexual Orientation- sexual attraction to members of a particular gender
heterosexual:attraction to different gender
homosexual:attraction to same gender
Need to Belong: Harlow; we need people, we have a need for acceptance, we will change our actions to fit in with certain groups
Achievement Motivation: desire for significant accomplishment
-Extrinsic: Desire to perform a behavior for reward or to avoid punishment
-Intrinsic: Desire to perform a behavior for your own sake
Leadership Styles:
Task vs Social
-Task-Focuses on goals, sets standards (dictator)
-Social- Mediates conflict, builds teamwork (democratic)
Theory X vs Theory Y
-X- constant monitoring of workers, hovers
-Y- Intrinsic motivation, share control

Approach-approach conflict: occurs when you must choose between two desirable outcomes
Ex. Going to a party with your friends on New Year's or spending New Year's with your family
Avoidance-avoidance outcome: occurs when you must choose between two unattractive outcomes
Ex. Doing homework or going to the gym to work out
Approach-avoidance: exists when ONE event of goal has both attractive and unattractive features
Ex. you love cotton candy but the sugar bothers your stomach
Multiple approach-avoidance conflicts: here you must choose between two or more things, each of which has both desirable and undesirable features (both sides have pros and cons to each)
James-Lange Theory: the arousal comes before the emotion (pounding hear...fear)
stimulus-physical change-emotion
Cannon-Bard Theory: the arousal comes at the same times as the emotion
stimulus--emotion & physical change
Schachter-Singer Theory: arousal paired with a cognitive label, then the emotion
stimulus---cognitive label & physical change---emotion
Opponent Process Theory: emotions are in pairs (fear/relief; pleasure/pain; depression/elation)---similar to color theory for sight
-can not feel both at the same time
6 Basic Emotions: Joy, Anger, Disgust, Surprise, Sadness, Fear

Ekman's Theory: Facial muscles are used to indicate emotion and are universal
Duchenne- genuine smile

Learned Motives
-Form of Social Motives but Learned through Modeling/Observation of Others

1. Aggression
  a. intent to inflict harm or pain
  b. connnection to learned helplessness

2. Achievement
  a. need to excel or overcome obstacles
  b. highly motivated children and upbringing, "Early Independence & Encourgament"
  c. Emotional & Cognitive roots
   w/ future achievement
   w/ birth order
   w/ creativity

Primary Drive: hunger
Secondary Drive: your friends bring in sweets and you eat them even though you are not hungry

Stimulus Motives
-unlearned motives that encourage exploration of the world
-(used to obtain information on the World...even when bored!)
-what do you ponder?
-what is your activity level?

its all based on your body regulating how much and what you ear
1. Levels of Glucose
-Pancreas senses glucose level
-Low glucose/high insulin encourages hunger
2. Hypothalamus
-Lateral hypothalamus (sides) (stimulates hunger)
-triggers hormone orexin
-ventromedial hypthalamus (Lower/ Middle) (Satiety Center) (Depress Hunger)
3. Stomach/instentines
-Stomach Receptos sense calories/ amount of food, Triggers Hormone Grelin
-increases food intake 
-small intenstine- stimulates satiety center
-horomone leptin
-decrease food intake]]> 2017-01-12 14:00:54 UTC https://padlet.com/katherineand6870/fc51itwgy5f6/wish/146776673 katherineand6870 https://padlet.com/katherineand6870/fc51itwgy5f6/wish/146777576 Hypertonicity
-cellular dehydration acts because of osmoreceptor in hypothalamus
-stimulating thirst
Hypotension
-high-pressure baroreceptors in carotid sinus and aorta sense it
-renin can be released in renal hypotension
-swelling of liquids
Sodium Stimulates
1. Inside Cells
-monitors in cells detect water level
-salt causes cells to lose water
-activates hypothalamus
2. Outside Cells
-extracellular fluid detected through kidneys if low increases thirst

Ex. A kid who gets an A, has to get an A again

-Positive Psychology: study of optimal human functioning. aims to promote conditions that allow people to thrive

-GAS (General Adaptation Syndrome): Process through which we respond to certain stressful events:
   -Alarm
   -Resistance
   -Exhaustion
-Yerkes Dodson Theory: optimum stress necessary for optimum performance
too much stress= bad;
too little= bad;
right amount= positive/optimal performance]]> 2017-01-12 14:06:42 UTC https://padlet.com/katherineand6870/fc51itwgy5f6/wish/146778734 katherineand6870 https://padlet.com/katherineand6870/fc51itwgy5f6/wish/147521268 2017-01-17 13:26:03 UTC https://padlet.com/katherineand6870/fc51itwgy5f6/wish/147521268 katherineand6870 https://padlet.com/katherineand6870/fc51itwgy5f6/wish/147795231 Round 1-
