Minds On… What does this mean? What implications does it have for helping us to understand what roles wants or needs play when it comes to motivating human behavior? What about feelings and emotions? How are they connected to wants and needs? Therefore, how do they affect human behavior? What about habits, impulses & intuition? Learning Goal: I will understand the difference between nature versus nurture regarding human motivation for behaviour

Human Behaviour… What drives human behaviour? Are we driven by our biological needs or our social needs? Do you think it is a bit of both? Learning Goal: I will understand the difference between nature versus nurture regarding human motivation for behaviour

What Motivates Behaviour? Biological Motivation inborn or innate needs such as hunger these needs are physical they are derived by nature or genetics possibly through genetic pre- programming or predisposition such as personality Social Motivation learned psychological needs need for social approval such as praise & rewards encourages learned behaviours that are desired these behaviours are driven by nurture or our social environment Learning Goal: I will understand the difference between nature versus nurture regarding human motivation for behaviour

Nature versus Nurture? Nature Freud, we are driven by our life and death drives sexual drive aggression Nurture Watson, & Skinner, we are driven by a desire for reinforcement praise from others Both Maslow, we are driven by basic physiological needs initially, but once they are met we are also driven by social needs food, water, shelter love and acceptance Learning Goal: I will understand the difference between nature versus nurture regarding human motivation for behaviour
