their rooms and hear potential Answer anyone you peer pressure
- 00:23
russian cleanliness paint all right Well first let's take a
- 00:28
look at what the incentive theory actually is Incentive theorists
- 00:31
believe that behaviour is motivated by something that's personally encouraging
- 00:35
or rewarding like how we promised ourselves an entire pizza
- 00:38
If we finished this questions so would an incentive theorists
- 00:41
suggest answered a well as nice is a clean room
- 00:44
and a feeling of safety can be they don't really
- 00:46
provide enough motivation for a kid to clean their room
- 00:49
Most kids generally need something a little more rewarding in
- 00:52
order Teo clean a messy room behind most shmoop dude
- 00:55
you should see my desk Alright tween cross off How
- 00:59
about answer be Well any incentive theorists worth their salt
- 01:02
wouldn't recommend peer pressure Yes it's a type of motivation
- 01:05
but it isn't based on any praise or reward instead
- 01:08
Involved the urge to fit in and look cool which
- 01:11
we're pretty sure it can be accomplished by eating an
- 01:13
entire so we can eliminate be you see what we're
- 01:16
looking for Well not quite This type of motivation would
- 01:19
most likely be suggested by n arousal theorist again there's
- 01:23
No reward being offered in this scenario Just that crazy
- 01:26
adrenaline rush we all get when we start cleaning our
- 01:29
rooms We don't all get that well never mind It
- 01:32
looks like we can sweep away See and that brings
- 01:35
us to answer d self actualization is the desire for
- 01:38
self fulfillment and the need to reach one's potential Well
- 01:42
unless you're the buddha room cleaning it seems pretty unlikely
- 01:44
that you would find self fulfillment vacuuming and dusting It's
- 01:48
also pretty doubtful that an incentive theorists would suggest motivating
- 01:51
a kid to clean their room with a concept of
- 01:53
self actualization leaving us with each paying them to clean
- 01:58
their room pretty straight forward right And incentive theorists would
- 02:02
suggest that motivating kids by giving them money a k
- 02:05
a reward a k and incentive kids like money All
- 02:09
right everyone likes money gold hard cash and exchange from
- 02:12
picking up some dirty socks sounds like a good deal 00:02:14.91 --> [endTime] to us
