4 Types:
 Evolutionary Perspective- We're motivated from natural instinct. Ex: Dogs shake fur when they're wet.
 Drive- Reduction- When you're hungry you eat. Need is food and drive is hunger. Maintaining homeostasis. 
 Optimal Arousal- When we're motivated to maintain to hit the right level of arousal without the stress involved.

  • We are motivated to maintain a balance between stimulation and relaxation.
    • Suggests that humans are motivated to maintain a comfortable level of arousal.
  • We are motivated to avoid both boredom and stress.
  • Says that people are motivated to reach an optimal state of alertness or activation.
  • Maximum performance occurs at optimal arousal levels.
    • Each human has a level of arousal at which he / she generally performs best
