motivation: a need or desire that directs behavior
incentive theory: positive or negative environmental stimuli that motivates behavior
physiological vs. psychological
-hunger drives us to eat
-fatigue drives us to rest

drive reduction theory: a physical need creates a drive to satisfy the need
maslow's hierarchy of needs: pyramid of human needs, each need must be met successfully to move up; ending with self-actualization

hunger drive/weight disorders: both internal and external reasons for hunger; anorexia, bulimia, obesity
thirst drive- reduction of fluid in and outside of cell caused by sodium [reasons of habitual, cultural, and psychogenetic]

lateral vs. ventral medial hypothalamus

sexual response cycle: four stages of sexual responding- excitement, plateau, orgasm, resolution

psychology of 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 a 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: cobnstant monitoring of workers
-->Y: intrinsic motivation; shares control
industrial organizational psych: studies how managers can best enhance the workplace]]> 2017-01-10 13:39:05 UTC https://padlet.com/meghanamoh0459/wc28b28w3zwp/wish/146236367 meghanamoh0459 https://padlet.com/meghanamoh0459/wc28b28w3zwp/wish/146497590 conflict motivation: sometimes what you want to do in a situation is clear to you, but at other times you no doubt find yourself conflicted about what choice to make

-approach-approach conflict: occurs when you must choose between two desirable outcomes ex: choosing between ice cream and pie
-avoidance-avoidance conflict: occurs when you must choose between two unattractive outcomes
ex: choosing between green beans and bean casserole

-approach-avoidance: exists when one event or goal has both attractive and unattractive features
-multiple-approach-avoidance conflicts: here you must choose between two or more things, each of which has both desirable features

-james-lange theory: arousal comes before the emotion [stimulus --> physical change --> emotion]
-cannon-bard theory: the arousal comes at the same times as the emotion
-schachter-singer theory: arousal paired with a cognitive label, then the emotion 
-opponent process theory: emotions are in pairs [fear/relief; pleasure/pain] --> similar to color theory for sight 
 --> cannot occur at the same time

-ekman's theory: facial muscles are used to indicate emotion and are universal

-aggression: intent to inflict harm or pain; connection to learned helplessness

-achievement: need to excel or overcome obstacles; highly motivated children and upbringing; emotional and cognitive roots

3 theories for hunger drive
1. levels of glucose
-pancreas senses glucose level
-low glucose/high insulin encourages hunger
2. grelin hormone increases food intake
3. leptin hormone decreases need for food intake

thirst drive:
hypertonicity: cellular dehydration actrs because of osmoreceptor in hypothalamus
hypotension: high-pressure baroreceptros in carotid sinus and aorta sense it
-renin can be released in renal hypotension

sodium stimulates 1. inside cells, 2. outside cells

stress responses:
-adaptive-level phenomenon- ability to form judgements of sounds, lights, based on prior experience
-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
