Possible Answers: Jamal and Corey are fighting over which movie to see tonight Colin locked his keys in the car, and now he either has to break the window or wait for help to arrive Kevin wants to enroll in Woodshop and Drama next semester, but only has room in his schedule for one Amy wants to give blood, but she's afraid of needles Kelsey's family is moving, but she doesn't want to leave Correct answer: Kevin wants to enroll in Woodshop and Drama next semester, but only has room in his schedule for one Explanation: An approach-approach motivational conflict occurs when an individual must choose between two possible outcomes, both of which are positive. In the correct answer option, Kevin must choose between Woodshop or Drama. Since both of these options represent positive outcomes and since the decision is left solely to Kevin, this scenario represents an approach-approach motivational conflict. The incorrect choices either involve multiple people or involve at least one possible negative outcome Who proposed the law of effect? Possible Answers: Albert Bandura Edward Thorndike Sigmund Freud William James Karen Horney Correct answer: Edward Thorndike Explanation: Edward Thorndike was a prominent American psychologist who proposed the law of effect, which posits that responses that are followed with a positive consequence are more likely to be repeated, as opposed to responses that are not reinforced. B.F. Skinner's theory of operant conditioning is primarily based on the law of effect. In drive reduction theory, secondary drives can be things such as which of the following? Possible Answers: Money Happiness Sex Hunger Water Explanation: A secondary drive is something that can be learned by conditioning. Primary drives (thirst, hunger, sex, and intrinsic happiness) are innate drives that cannot be taught. Money is a secondary drive because humans do not feel the innate desire to collect pieces of paper; however, the value attached to money by our society gives that drive to people. The same can be said for things such as cars and other status symbols. Billy calls Ed a bad name, so Ed punches him in the face out of anger. Ed's actions are an example of __________. Possible Answers: None of the other answer choices is correct. passive aggression instrumental aggression relational aggression hostile aggression Correct answer: hostile aggression Explanation: Ed's action was impulsive, motivated solely by emotion to directly attack the source of his anger and cause him pain. Instrumental aggression is motivated by the prospect of some reward for such behavior, while passive aggression and relational aggression involve indirect attacks against a target's social standing or possessions (e.g. sabotage, humiliation). According to Maslow's hierarchy of needs, the ability of a person to achieve everything that they are capable of is termed __________. Possible Answers: self-actualization belonging love self-esteem self-respect Correct answer: self-actualization Explanation: Maslow believed that the ultimate destiny of mankind was self-actualization, or a tendency to become everything that one is capable of becoming. Maslow theorized that human existance is based on needs that arise in hierarchical order: basic physiological needs such as food; safey needs; love and belonging needs; self-respect and self-esteem needs; and self-actualization. What is the highest level of Maslow's hierarchy of needs? Possible Answers: Safety Self-esteem Self-actualization Physiological needs Social needs and sense of belonging Correct answer: Self-actualization Explanation: In order, Maslow's hierarchy of needs are physiological, safety, social/belonging, self-esteem, and self-actualization. Physiological needs include water and food, safety needs include financial security and health, social/belonging needs include friendship and family, self-esteem needs include confidence and respect from others, self-actualization needs include the need to accomplish everything that a person feels he/she is capable of doing. Maslow believed that all of the lower levels of the hierarchy needed to be met in order for someone to achieve the highest level: self-actualization. Mr. Robinson promises to let his class out early on Friday if their average on today's quiz is above an 85% percent. Mr. Robinson is trying to motivate his students with a __________. Possible Answers: catch-22 negative punishment positive punishment negative reward positive reward Correct answer: negative reward Explanation: A reward is something good for the students, while a punishment is something bad for them. A positive reward/punishment introduces something new into their environment (i.e. the classroom), while a negative reward/punishment removes something from their environment. Getting to leave class early is a good thing for the students that removes something unpleasant (here, the extra time spent in class) from their environment, so it is a negative reward. Which of the following is NOT one of the needs in Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs? Possible Answers: safety needs esteem needs physiological needs These are all needs in Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs self-actualization needs Correct answer: These are all needs in Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Explanation: These are four of Abraham Maslow's five needs. His theory regarding human motivation consists of a pyramid-like hierarchy of needs: physiological needs (hunger, thirst, health, sex, etc.), safety needs, belonging and love needs, esteem needs (approval and recognition), and self-acutalization needs (living up to one's own potential). Which theory of motivation proposes as its core the idea that humans are motivated by stimuli which they associate with rewards or punishments? Possible Answers: Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Incentive Theory Arousal Theory Instinct Theory Drive-Reduction Theory Correct answer: Incentive Theory Explanation: According to the Incentive Theory, motivation is based on positive and negative associations with stimuli. So, one is motivated to do something because of an associated reward or motivated to not do something because of an associated punishment. Which of the following best describes the Drive-Reduction Theory of motivation? Possible Answers: human behavior is unlearned and passed on instinctually throughout the species humans are motivated to attain an optimum level of arousal or excitement human behavior is motivated by associations between certain stimuli with rewards and other stimuli with punishments human behavior is motivated by various drives to satisfy biological needs Correct answer: human behavior is motivated by various drives to satisfy biological needs Explanation: The concept of the theory is in its name. The Drive-Reduction Theory reduces motivation to satisfying drives caused by biological needs.
