Understanding and Distinguishing Motivational Types:
Initial (Innate) vs. Secondary (Gained) Motives:
Initial (Innate) Motives:
These are primarily biological drives that are essential for the survival of the organism. They are often referred to as primary needs.
- Survival of the organism: This encompasses basic needs such as hunger, thirst, sleep, and the avoidance of pain.
- Motivation to maintain the kind: This refers to the instinctual drive for reproduction and ensuring the survival of the species.
- Parental motivation: The innate drive to protect and nurture offspring.
Secondary (Gained) Motives:
These are motives that develop through learning, socialization, and cultural influences. They are often referred to as learned or acquired needs.
- Social motives: These are influenced by interactions with others and include the need for affiliation, approval, and belonging.
- Self-motivated: These are internal drives for personal growth, achievement, and independence.
- Defended fighter: This could potentially refer to a defensive or aggressive motive developed in response to threats or challenges.
- Motivation to control: This is the desire to exert influence or power over oneself or others.
- Motivation to own property: This is the desire to possess and accumulate material goods.
- Motivation to play: While it has biological roots, it is also influenced by cultural and social factors.
- Defended poll: This seems to be a misstatement. It's possible there's a misunderstanding or error in the term.
Further Considerations:
- Overlap: It's important to note that there can be significant overlap between innate and gained motives. For example, hunger (innate) can be influenced by cultural food preferences (gained).
- Hierarchy: Maslow's hierarchy of needs suggests that some motives take precedence over others. Physiological needs (innate) must generally be met before higher-level needs (gained) become primary motivators.
- Individual Differences: People vary in the strength and importance of different motives. Personality, cultural background, and life experiences all play a role.
