Answer 1

• 1.False;Motivation comes from internal and external sources. An internal source of motivation may be a need to accomplish a task to personal satisfaction, while an external motive might be the offer of a promotion for a job well done. Motivation is a move to action with the goal of fulfilling a goal or desire. According to Deckers (2011), “motivation is the impetus or reason for doing the behavior; it initiates the action.A move to action may require a person to believe they possess the knowledge and competence to achieve a task.Conversley, if motivation is not present to begin with, no amount of knowledge or competency will make a difference.
• 2.True,I think all of us have desire to succeed in some or the way,either in a big way or small way.A need for achievement is present in all of us,in some people more and in some less.
• 4.McDougall listed seventeen instincts in 1932, including hunger, rejection of particular substances, curiosity, escape, pugnacity, sex, maternal /paternal instinct, gregariousness, self-assertion, submission, construction, acquisition, crying out or appeal, laughter, comfort, rest or sleep, and migration.
• 6.The drive reduction theory of motivation became popular during the 1940s and 1950s as a way to explain behavior, learning, and motivation. The theory was created by behaviorist Clark Hull and further developed by his collaborator Kenneth Spence. According to the theory, the reduction of drives is the primary force behind motivation.In his theory, Hull used the term drive to refer to the state of tension or arousal caused by biological or physiological needs. Thirst, hunger, and the need for warmth are all examples of drives. A drive creates an unpleasant state, a tension that needs to be reduced.In order to reduce this state of tension, humans and animals seek out ways to fulfill these biological needs.We get a drink when we are thirsty.
• 7.True,most human behaviour is learned,People learn through observing others' behavior, attitudes, and outcomes of those behaviors. Most human behavior is learned observationally through modeling: from observing others, one forms an idea of how new behaviors are performed, and on later occasions this coded information serves as a guide for action.
