Instinct
• A complex behavior that is rigidly patterned throughout a species and is unlearned.
• Examples:– Imprinting in birds– The return of the salmon to their birthplace– Innate tendencies in humans such as rooting
and sucking

(1) Drive Reduction Theory
• A physiological need creates an aroused tension state (a drive) that motivates an organism to satisfy the need.
Physiological Need
Psychological Need

• Inner Pushes
We are pushed by our need to eat (hunger) to reduce the tension by eating.
The physiological aim of drive reduction is homeostasis
• External Pulls
We are pulled by incentives – positive or negative stimuli that lure or repel us.
Examples:
The sight of an attractive person
The threat of disapproval

(2) Arousal
• Some motivated behavior increase arousal.
• Well-fed animals will leave their shelter to explore, seemingly in the absence of any need-based drive.
• Curiosity drives explorers and scientists to discover.

HungerThe Physiology of Hunger
1- Body Chemistry (insulin and glucose)
2- The Brain (hypothalamus)
3- Set Point
4- Basal Metabolic Rate
![Page 8: Motivation As Per Psych](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/55578295d8b42ad4278b4a2a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

The BrainThe Hypothalamus
The Lateral Hypothalamus
(brings on hunger)
When deprived of food and blood sugar is low, the LH churns out orexin, a hunger-triggering hormone.
The Ventromedial
Hypothalamus
(depresses hunger)
Stimulate this area and an animal will stop eating.
Destroy it & the animal’s intestines will process food very rapidly causing it to eat more often.

How Does these Complementary
Areas in the Hypothalamus Work? 1- They influence how much glucose is converted
to fat and how much is left available to fuel immediate activity (and minimize hunger).
2- Distributed brain systems monitors the body’s state and reports to the hypothalamus, which sends the information to the frontal lobes, which decide behavior.
![Page 10: Motivation As Per Psych](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/55578295d8b42ad4278b4a2a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
10
How Does these Complementary
Areas in the Hypothalamus Work? 3- Manipulating the lateral and
ventromedial hypothalamus alters the body’s weight thermostat, which predisposes us to keep our body at a particular weight level called “set point.”
![Page 11: Motivation As Per Psych](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/55578295d8b42ad4278b4a2a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Maintaining the Body’s Set-Point Weight
1- The body adjusts to food intake.
2- the body adjusts to energy output
3- The body adjusts to its basal metabolic rate
![Page 12: Motivation As Per Psych](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/55578295d8b42ad4278b4a2a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Basal Metabolic Rate
• The rate at which the body burns calories for energy depending on:
• 1- fat cells
• 2- hormones
• 3- metabolism

Genes and Weight
• Set-Point Theory
• A biological mechanism keeps a person’s body weight at a genetically influenced set-point – the weight you stay at when you are not consciously trying to gain or lose weight.
![Page 18: Motivation As Per Psych](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/55578295d8b42ad4278b4a2a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

The “Obese” Gene
• Obese gene causes fat cells to produce leptin.
• Leptin travels through blood to hypothalamus (regulates appetite)
• Leptin reduces appetite
![Page 19: Motivation As Per Psych](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062418/55578295d8b42ad4278b4a2a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
19
Why Do People Gain Weight Rapidly?
• Secretion of leptin is impaired
• May produce plenty of leptin but their body does not respond to it.
• Tendency to store calories which have a survival advantage.

Losing Weight
1- Minimize exposure to tempting food cues.2- Take steps to boost your metabolism.3- Be realistic and moderate.4- Modify both your metabolic rate and you hunger
by changing what you eat.5-Don’t starve all day and eat one big meal at night.6- Beware of the binge7- Begin only if you are prepared to exercise and
restrict your eating permanently.

The Biology of Desire
• Sex Hormones
• Testosterone contributes to sexual arousal.
• Sexual activity contributes to the production of testosterone.
• At ovulation, women’s sexual desire is only slightly higher than at other times.

heterosexual men than in women and homosexual men.
• The critical question is:– When did the brain difference begin.– Everything psychologically is simultaneously
biological

Genes and Sexual Orientation
• A Follow-up Study on Twin Sisters of Homosexual Women
• 48% of their identical twins were homosexual.• 16% of their fraternal twins were homosexual• With half the identical twin pairs differing, we
know that genes are not the whole story• This is the sort of pattern we expect to see when
genes are having an influence.

Prenatal Hormones and Sexual Orientation
• Female sheep will show homosexual behavior if their pregnant mothers are injected with testosterone during a critical gestation period.
• With humans, a critical period for the brain’s neural-hormonal control system may exist between the middle of the second and fifth months after conception.
• Hypothesis: homosexuals were exposed to atypical prenatal hormones.
