Basic Motivational Concepts
• Motivation energizes and directs behavior
• Motivated behavior is goal-directed behavior
• Motivation has qualitative and quantitative properties
• Motivation can only be inferred from behavior
![Page 3: EPSY 275: Learning & Motivation SchoolMotivation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022072005/56649cd85503460f949a11eb/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Behavioral Indicators of Motivation
• Choice• Intensity• Persistence
![Page 4: EPSY 275: Learning & Motivation SchoolMotivation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022072005/56649cd85503460f949a11eb/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Choice• Goal setting stage of motivation (first
stage)• Decision about which goal to pursue
among available options• Reflects consciously or unconsciously
learner’s priorities• Most informative when unrestrained• Measure of qualitative property
![Page 5: EPSY 275: Learning & Motivation SchoolMotivation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022072005/56649cd85503460f949a11eb/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Intensity
• Goal striving stage of motivation (second stage)
• Measure of strength (a quantitative property)
• Logic – the greater the strength of a motive the greater the amount of energy a person will expend to obtain that goal
![Page 6: EPSY 275: Learning & Motivation SchoolMotivation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022072005/56649cd85503460f949a11eb/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Persistence• Also refers to goal striving stage• Also a measure of the strength of a motive• Related duration of effort to strength• Logic - the greater the strength of a
motive the greater the duration of time a person will attempt to obtain that goal (particular after experiencing failure or difficulty)
![Page 7: EPSY 275: Learning & Motivation SchoolMotivation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022072005/56649cd85503460f949a11eb/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The Expectancy-Value Principle
• Effort = Expectancy X Task Value• Expectancy refers to the strength of person’s
belief that they will achieve the goal• Task Value refers to the relative importance
of the goal given the other available options• People try the hardest and longest to obtain a
goal when they are confident they can obtain it AND they place great value on it

Expectancy for Success

OutcomeExpectancy
Is the desired outcomelikely to occur in this
situation?
Can I do what it takesto produce the desired
outcome?

Outcomes = Goals• Outcomes result from our actions• Outcomes often confused with actions (i.e.,
my goal is to run 2 miles)• Outcome can be intangible (maybe a
psychological or physical state) resulting from an action (i.e., how I feel after running 2 miles and the endorphins “kick in”) or tangible (prize money won from running)

Three classes of Outcomes (Motivators)
• Positive & negative physical effects
• Positive and negative social effects
• Affective self-reactions

Sources of Efficacy Expectancies
• Task accomplishments• Vicarious experiences• Verbal persuasion• Physiological State• Causal analysis
![Page 13: EPSY 275: Learning & Motivation SchoolMotivation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022072005/56649cd85503460f949a11eb/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Attribution Theory• Concerned with causal analysis phase of
self-evaluation• Our beliefs about the cause of our
performance in a situation influences our expectancy for future performance in that situation
• Focus on achievement situation - a situation in which a person's performance is compared to some standard
![Page 14: EPSY 275: Learning & Motivation SchoolMotivation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022072005/56649cd85503460f949a11eb/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Dimensions of Causality
• Stability• Locus• Controllability
![Page 15: EPSY 275: Learning & Motivation SchoolMotivation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022072005/56649cd85503460f949a11eb/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The Stability Dimension
• Causes that are expected to be consistently or regularly operating in the situation are said to be stable
• Causes that are expected to be irregularly or only occasionally operating in the situation are said to be unstable
![Page 16: EPSY 275: Learning & Motivation SchoolMotivation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022072005/56649cd85503460f949a11eb/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The Locus Dimension• Causes that originate outside of
the person are said to be external• Causes that originate within the
person are said to be internal
![Page 17: EPSY 275: Learning & Motivation SchoolMotivation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022072005/56649cd85503460f949a11eb/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The Controllability Dimension
• Causes that are under the control of the person are said to be controllable
• Causes that are not under the control of the person are said to be uncontrollable
![Page 18: EPSY 275: Learning & Motivation SchoolMotivation](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022072005/56649cd85503460f949a11eb/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
