Perspectives of Motivation

Psychodynamic: Looks at the differences between conscious or explicit and unconscious or implicit motives.

Behavioural: Humans repeat behaviours that lead to reinforcement and avoid behaviours linked to punishment.

Cognitive: Human behaviour is based on values and the belief that it is achievable.

Humanistic: Works of the self-actualisation theory of Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
