FUNCTIONS OF MOTIVATION

            Psychologists have analsyed the motivated behaviour of an organism and observed the following characteristic attributes of such type of behaviour.

(1)    Motives energize and sustain behaviour . Motives energize the behaviour of the organism and arouse him for action. The energy can be physiological as in drives or reintegrative resonator activity aroused by similarity between present action and residues of past ones that were emotionally significant for the person. The energy is supplied in proportion to the amount of energy output for a task. Motives not only energize the behaviour buy the sustain our interest and behaviour for longer period in the activity.

(2)    Motives direct and regulate our behaviour. Motivated state is often described as guided, directed and goal-oriented. The motivated behaviour moves in a specific direction. The behaviour of the organism is purposeful and persistent. The direction of motivational behaviour is, no doubt, very complex because of the structure of the present situation and the action sequences which determine the behaviour.


(3)    Behaviour is selective. Under motivated condition, the behaviour of the organism does not move in haphazard way. It is directed toward a selective goal which the individual sets for himself. For example, the student who is motivated to secure high grades in the examination, concentrates on his studies by selecting appropriate means to reach his goal. The motive is terminated by the achievement of the goal.
