Motivation


Motivation is probably the most frequently
used catch-all term for explaining the success
or failure of virtually any complex task.
Following the historical schools of thought
described in Chapter 1, three different
perspectives emerges:
A. From a behavioristic perspective,
motivation is seen in very matter of
fact terms.
B. In cognitive term, motivation
places much more emphasis on
the individual’s decisions.
Ausubel, for example, identified six needs
undergirding the construct of motivation:
a. the need for exploration
b. the need for manipulation
c. the need for activity
d. the need for stimulation
e. the need for knowledge
f. the need for ego enhancement
C. The constructivist view of
motivation places even further
emphasis on social context as well
as individual personal choices.

else.
