CD 501 Midterm
Define motivation - correct answer ✔The main thematic component of
energy to act and goal-directedness.


attempt to explain the "why" of behavior--motivation is such a broad scope.


"to move" - the relation of beliefs, values and goals with action. (gives a sense
of what influences motivation)


To be moved to do something


A kind of energy, but it is a focused energy that is goal directed


Kind of energy that moves people to do things


what fuels that energy are people's reasons for acting


SDT categorizations - correct answer ✔(self-determination theory)
categorized motivation into types/kinds and that other theories of motivation
usually don't discuss "qualities" of motivation.


Self-determination theory - correct answer ✔Addresses the influence of the
relationship between the clients and therapists and how that can influence
motivation


What are the possible ramifications for the difference between SDT and other
theories? - correct answer ✔(a) most theories of motivation see motivation

,as a unitary thing - what determines whether or not people act or persist in
their goal pursuits ( how motivated they are) is the strength of the motivation
-->the amount of motivation is a factor, BUT what is more important is the
kind/quality of motivation we are experiencing.
-->are we feeling pressured? Is that our experience of motivation or is our
desire to act- does it freely arise from within and something that we genuinely
want to do.


What is an organismic psychological theory? - correct answer ✔It's
interested in innate psychological needs and desires


-those psychological needs that cross cultures, that cross age groups, etc.


What are the 3 basic psychological needs described in SDT. Be able to
describe each one. - correct answer ✔Autonomy: to feel you are acting
volitionally, to self-endorse one's actions, to act based on one's own reasons
and values ("I am doing it because I want to")
-->"I feel like I have a choice. The things that I do are the things that I want to
do and I do without any feeling of external pressure"


Competence: to feel effective, to meet challenges, broaden one's capacities
and experience mastery; it is more than mere ability
-->not about ability-about our experience that we are able to meet challenges
that are important to us...Being able to do something unimportant to use does
not satisfy our need for competence. We want to feel effective at doing those
things that are important to use. The need for competence is akin to the need
that we have to feel that we are continuing to grow as people. This need is
met when we are successful at things which we perceive to be somewhat
challenging.


Relatedness: to feel a close connection to others

, -->to feel that others care about us unconditionally and that we have other
people that we care about.


Autonomy v. Independence - correct answer ✔Independence: a description
of function. Whether I can do something without assistance


--> One can be completely dependent on others, but that can be a choice and
so they still feel as though they are autonomous or that the decision to be
dependent on others was an autonomous decision.


Basic psychological needs are learned or innate? - correct answer ✔innate


Reflect on ramification of basic psychological needs being innate. - correct
answer ✔-they are psychological needs
-everyone has the same psychological needs
China and the US-whether or not their need to feel autonomous was satisfied
correlated with their psychological well being
-it didn't matter whether or not you indicated that meeting these needs were
important to you
-Those individuals that stated that the needs were important: if their needs
were not satisfied, it correlated with other measures and their psychological
well being.


What is the relationship between the basic psychological needs and
motivation? - correct answer ✔in order for one to experience an optimal
amount of psychological well being, they need to have their psychological
needs satisfied. Because these feelings are innate--people are motivated to
do the things that just happen to satisfy those innate psychological needs. The
psychological needs are psychological nutriments, suggesting that they
nourish us.
