[8] MOTIVATION AND EMOTIONAL REGULATION

TermDefinition 1Definition 2
MOTIVATION ● Your drive of doing something ● Inherent in the activities and processes that we do ● It is a continuum [not always high (SRD), and not always low (MDD) ● Providing with a reason to act in a certain way
MASLOW'S HIERARCHY OF NEEDS ● People are motivated by four dimensions of needs
MASLOW'S HIERARCHY OF NEEDS four dimensions of needs: ○ CONATIVE ○ AESTHETIC ○ COGNITIVE ○ NEUROTIC
CONATIVE (willful striving) ■ Arranged in a hierarchy position ■ Lower lvls must be satisfied before you go up ■ Physiological Needs
AESTHETIC (the need for order and beauty)
COGNITIVE (the need for curiosity and knowledge)
NEUROTIC (an unproductive pattern of relating to people)
A. Conative Needs 4. Safety Needs 3. Love and Belongingness Needs 2. Esteem Needs 1. Self Actualization Needs
Physiological Needs - Breathing, food, water, sex, sleep, homeostasis, excretion - the only need that may be overly satisfied, prepotent (greater)
Safety Needs - Security of: body, employment, resources, family, health and property - this provides a feeling of protection and being out of danger ● protected and out of danger
Love and Belongingness Needs - Friendship, family, sexual intimacy - connection to friends, family, or belonging to a group
Esteem Needs - Self-esteem, confidence, achievement, respect of others, respect by others - we are wired to achieve something for ourselves, we want to be recognized
Self Actualization Needs - Morality, creativity, spontaneity , problem solving, lack of prejudice, acceptance of facts - self fulfillment, realizing your growth and potential
B. Aesthetic Needs Need for beauty and aesthetically pleasing experiences
C. Cognitive Needs Desire to know, to solve mysteries, to understand, and to be curious
D. Neurotic Needs Serve as compensation for unsatisfied basic needs; non- productive ● Kung ano yung di nasatisfy above, here sya lumalabas (will compensate)
Self-Actualization 3 CONCEPTS: (1) Acceptance and Realism (2) Problem Solving (3) Spontaneous
(1) Acceptance and Realism: Alam mo kung ano kakayahan mo and weakness mo kaya alam mo yung kaya mong maitulong.
(2) Problem Solving: Problem solving outside yourself and you help other people solve their problems. ■ Pangkalahatan solusyon
(3) Spontaneous: Okay lang maging sponty kasi alam mong kahit anong mangyari kakayanin mo.
MASLOW'S HIERARCHY OF NEEDS INTERVENTION ○ Identify lowest level of unmet need, and address this need so that individual can work toward higher-level needs. ○ May need to establish rapport and demonstrate that person is safe before providing therapy.
APPROACH MODEL (GRAY) ● Individuals are driven to participate in activities when they will result in rewards, positive experiences, or pleasant emotions ● Two dimensions of personality ● Biologically driven as it talks about your Sympathetic Nervous System
AVOIDANCE MODEL ● Individuals may be reluctant to engage in goal-directed behaviors if they anticipate that negative experiences or unpleasant emotions will result ● Away from punishment ● Forced to do because of punishment
APPROACH/AVOIDANCE MODEL INTERVENTION ○ Address emotions that might interfere with goal attainment, specifically anxiety and fear. ○ Address impulsiveness when there is little regard for danger ○ Support positive emotions that promote approach behaviors ○ Change emotional associations
BEHAVIORAL INHIBITION SYSTEMS (BIS) ● "avoidance dimension" ○ Alerts the individual to possible threats, danger, or punishment ○ Associated with negative emotions (depression, anxiety) ○ Ex: sinabi ng prof "pag di niyo inayos, ibabagsak namin kau," response would alert us to study harder ○ PTSD = dahil ayoko na maexperience to, ayoko na doon
BEHAVIORAL ACTIVATION SYSTEMS (BAS) ● "approach dimension" ○ Responsible for positive emotions such as hope and happiness ○ Can be assoc. with extraversion and impulsivity ○ Pleasure seekers
SELF-EFFICACY (BANDURA) ● Belief in your own capacity ● Primary drivers of human ● Appropriate for situations in which client expresses a lack of self- efficacy for a particular activity
SELF-EFFICACY (BANDURA) SOURCES ○ Mastery ○ Modeling ○ Social Persuasion ○ Somatic/Emotional states
Mastery: Strongest and most enduring source of self-efficacy ■ Belief that you can do it, you will do it more, there will be a resulting behavior (commended uli), you will repeat it again
HOW TO ADDRESS Mastery: •Create opportunities for successful experiences •Break down tasks into achievable components
Modeling: ■ People are more likely to be motivated by other individuals who are seen as similar to oneself ■ Ex: influencers that may not be the same with you may not be appropriate for modeling
HOW TO ADDRESS Modeling: •Identify role models who are similar to the person •Make available opportunities for modeling to occur
Social Persuasion: ■ Refers to verbal encouragement ■ Tends to be a weaker source of self-efficacy
HOW TO ADDRESS Social Persuasion: •Provide strong encouragement •Impart feedback that is specific and genuine •Withhold harsh criticism
Somatic/Emotional states: Physical and emotional response to an activity
HOW TO ADDRESS Somatic/Emotional states: •Reduce anxiety •Teach relaxation techniques •Assist w reinterpretation of negative emotional state
SELF-EFFICACY (BANDURA) Types of agency in achieving goals: ○ This is not individualistic; a group can give you a feeling of capability ○ Personal Agency ○ Proxy Agency ○ Collective Agency
Personal Agency: Exercise individually
Proxy Agency: When the individual influences others to act on his or her behalf ■ Ma-fefeel nya na may ibang taong nag influence sa self-efficacy nya ■ When they don't think they can do something
Collective Agency: When people work together to shape their future ■ FOMO
SELF-EFFICACY (BANDURA) INTERVENTION ○ Break down activities so the individual can have multiple successful experiences to create sense of mastery. ○ Incorporate role models into occupational therapy intervention; role models should share important characteristics with cx ○ Avoid criticism
SELF-DETERMINATION THEORY ● Intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation ○ What is usually followed in Pedia practice
Extrinsic: you act based in what you receive (eg. rewards or avoiding punishment)
Intrinsic: Innate to human (eg, reading books pero yung novels lang gusto mo hindi si early)

ORGANISMIC INTEGRATION THEORY (OIT) ● Motivational taxonomy ● A range from left to right ● Know what your motivators are and what factors affect that motivation ● Not as used by OTs because it doesn't really explain why
FLOW THEORY ● The concept of flow was coined by the osychologust Csikszentmihayli (2000) ● Flow is the experience of participation in an activity that is intrinsically rewarding that the person loses himself in the process ● Subjective experience ● Relevant consideration for activities that already possess a strong intrinsic motivation for the person
FLOW THEORY ● Characteristics ○ State of intense and focused concentration on the activity ○ Merging of action and awareness ○ Loss of self-consciousness ○ Deep sense of control ○ Distortion in time ○ Absence of anxiety ○ Activity is fully perceived as motivating in and of itself
FLOW THEORY INTERVENTION ○ Identify activities of interest to client or activities that have the potential to be intensely interesting to the individual. ○ Create opportunities for the "just right" fit of challenge and competence. ○ Help individual identify lifestyle that supports more opportunities for flow experiences.
TRANSTHEORETICAL MODEL ● Readiness to change ○ It is a cycle because right now you may feel ready, but in the future you may not feel ready d/t circumstances. ■ (1) Precontemplation ■ (2) Contemplation ■ (3) Determination ■ (4) Action ■ (5) Relapse ■ (6) Maintenance ● Focus is on situations in which person wants or needs to change a behavior— either to stop a negative behavior or begin a positive behavior
