Optimum level of arousal theory
• The law was first described in 1908 by psychologists Robert
Yerkes and John Dillingham Dodson.
• They discovered that mild electrical shocks could be used to
motivate rats to complete a maze, but when the electrical shocks
became too strong, the rats would scurry around in random
directions to escape.
• The experiment demonstrated that increasing stress and arousal
levels could help focus motivation and attention on the task at hand,
but only up to a certain point.
Cognitive theories
• Theory emphasizes on some sort of understanding or
anticipation of events through perception or thought or
judgment as in the estimation of probabilities or in
making a choice on the basis of relative value
• According to cognitive theory, motivated goal seeking
behavior comes to be regulated by these conditions,
which are based on the past, modified by circumstances
of the present & includes expectations about the future
Expectancy theory
• This theory emphasizes the importance of rewards & goals as
well as how persons expectations of consequences can influence
his behavior
• This theory stresses ‘pull’ rather than ‘push’
• According to theory, the hunger drive is only part of the reason a
hungry rat is motivated to find its way through a maze.
• It is also motivated because of previous learning experiences in
which it has come to expect a bit of food at the end
• Motivation is composed of two major features: the valence or
attractiveness of the goal & the expectancy or the likelihood that
its behavior will lead to the goal
