Psych 365 Chapter 1 questions with correct answers
Explain the meaning and importance of the phrase motivational science.
That is, why is it important to say motivation is a science? Correct
Answer-"The term science signals that answers to motivational
questions require objective, data-based, empirical evidence gained from
well-conducted and peer-reviewed research findings." So this means that
in order to figure out and understand motivation, we must go through a
lengthy process similar to the process of conducting studies and testing
out a hypothesis. There must be objectivity in this science as well as
anything else in Psychology. But, with the information that we collect
we are able to answer the question "Why?" as well as being helpful not
only to ourselves but to others as well.


Reality (in all its complexity) → Theory (as created by motivational
psychologists) → 1. Applications; Recommendations (How to support
and enhance motivation and emotion in applied settings) or 2.
Hypothesis (as derived from the theory) → Data (to test the adequacy of
each hypothesis → Goes back to theory


Explain the function or purpose of a theory in terms of helping (1)
motivation researchers understand complex phenomena, (2) generate
testable research hypotheses, and (3) recommend practical applications
(e.g., schools, work) to improve people's lives. Correct Answer-Theory:
is an intellectual framework that organizes a vast amount of knowledge
about a phenomenon so that the phenomenon can be better understood
and explained.


The study of motivation and emotion exists to answer the question
"Why?"

, A theory of achievement motivation needs two things:


It needs to identify the relations that exist among naturally occurring,
observable phenomena.
It needs to explain why those relations exist.


State the two perennial questions in the motivation study. Correct
Answer-What Causes Behavior?
Why does Behavior Vary in its Intensity?


How do motivation researchers answer this question: What causes
behavior? Correct Answer-This question referred to as "why" questions
is split up into five questions, so we are basically digging deeper to
understand what causes behavior. We can dig deeper by using the "why"
questions. For example, asking a pianist why she started playing piano,
what keeps her going, why did they choose this instrument compared to
others, etc. This can be applied to everything in life.


How do motivation researchers answer this question: Why does behavior
vary in its intensity? Correct Answer-The idea that motivation can vary
within the individual means that a person can be actively engaged at one
time, yet that same person can be passive and listless at another time.
The idea that motivation can vary between individuals means that, even
in the same situation, some people can be actively engaged while others
are passive. Some motives are relatively strong for one person yet
relatively weak for another.
