o Differ in value <\/strong>for us at diff moments and diff times o Thoughts<\/strong>: serve as incentive motivators<\/p>\n
Concept of incentives as motivators shows that objects or events can influence our behaviour over physical needs<\/p>\n
Incentive Motivation (K)<\/p>\n
Hull-Spence and rg<\/sub>-sr<\/sub><\/p>\n
o Stimuli that become associated w\/Rg<\/sub> and thus develop rg<\/sub>-sg <\/sub>do not have to be external to the organism<\/p>\n
i.e. sensations we feel when we are hungry are with us from start to goal; they are present when Rg<\/sub> occurs, so they also elicit rg<\/sub><\/p>\n
rg<\/sub>-sg<\/sub> is a peripheral explanation of incentive motivation and rg<\/sub> is a minute muscular response<\/p>\n
The Persistence of Behaviour<\/p>\n
Asmel and rf<\/sub>-sf<\/sub><\/p>\n
o Partial reinforcement schedule (PRF):<\/strong> sometimes rat\u2019s responses are rewarded with food and sometimes they are not rewarded at all<\/p>\n
Initially, these leads to competing responses (less\/slower behaviour) which would eventually die out b\/c they always went unreinforced<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
(extinguished) and rf<\/sub>-sf <\/sub>would become counter-conditioned to the same response that rg<\/sub>-sg <\/sub>is activating<\/p>\n
Study showing strong support for energizing effects of frustration and the incorporation of this behaviour into behaviours present at the time frustration occurs:<\/p>\n
o Emotional responses and their consequent feedback stimuli are sometimes disruptive, but they can also eventually become counterconditioned to ongoing behaviour<\/p>\n
Mowrer: Fear, Hope, Relief and Disappointment<\/p>\n
Emotional responses associated w\/fear become connected to any stimuli present at the time the emotion occurs<\/p>\n
–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong>Role of reinforcement: activate 1 of 4 emotions vs. influencing responses directly; thus, learning alters what organism wants to do vs. what organism can do<\/p>\n
o Thus, again Mowrer saw behaviour as activated by emotional incentive o Stimuli that produce emotion of hope will activate behaviours that keep organism in their presence, while stimuli associated w\/fear will activate avoidance behaviours<\/p>\n
o Motivates behaviour that will have effect of removing cues that signal disappointment<\/p>\n
i.e. bell ending hard lab class<\/p>\n
o The activation of this anticipatory emotion directs behaviour toward or away from objects in the environment<\/p>\n
Incentive motivation serves to mediate between stimulus and response b\/c predictive stimuli create incentive motivation, which in turn directs appropriate responding<\/p>\n
Tolman: Cognitive Formulations<\/p>\n
o Positive incentives \uf0e0 approached and negative incentives \uf0e0 avoided<\/p>\n
More highly values incentives energize behaviour more than less-values incentives<\/p>\n
The Overmier and Lowry Model<\/p>\n
Secondary (conditioned) reinforcers<\/strong>: stimuli that are consistently associated w\/reinforcement become reinforcers in their own right o Reinforcement serves to develop incentive motivation vs. strengthen S-R connections<\/p>\n
o Thus, secondary reinforcers are also incentive motivators and should have both energizing and response selection properties<\/p>\n
The Bindra Model<\/p>\n
Most meaningful in people\u2019s lives: family, children, clos relationships<\/p>\n
