Explanation:
1.The first example that I can cite that explains "the theory of arousal" is when I had my physiological needs covered but I did not have a job, I felt that I needed to work, achieve personal goals
That is why, as this theory explains very well:
Humans seek an optimal level of arousal:
- Too low = boredom
- Too high = stress.
The second example has to do with the need to work and the type of work we do; for example if I need money to survive and help my family, I know I have to work, but if I study a career such as teaching that allows me to satisfy that need and at the same time feel comfortable and fulfilled with my work, that is a great incentive ; here the "impulse reduction theory" is fulfilled, which explains the following:
"When the need and an incentive come together, they make us feel
powerfully driven towards satisfaction "
2.When examining these two examples and comparing the two theories exposed we see that there is a great relationship; Although at first it is necessary to satisfy basic needs, then comes the satisfaction of social, security and self-realization needs as set out in the Maslow pyramid.
The scientific thinker that had direct problems with the Catholic Church because of his science was Galileo!
