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.

Answer: 1. The first scenario was my motivation to work hard at my studies and achieve an excellent college result.

2. The second scenario was when I was motivated to participate in a running competition because of the prize which was a fixed sum of money.

Explanation:

1. The first scenario stems from the Achievement theory. This theory was proposed by David McClelland to explain how an individual's personal attributes (such as hard work and perseverance) affect his desire to attain goals and acquire certain skills.

b. Relation of the theory to my experience - This theory explains my motivation in attaining a good college result because my personal quest for success combined with my personal attributes like hard work and endurance to enable me to remain focused and achieve the ultimate goal.

2. The second theory stems from the Incentive theory which proposes that peoples desire to achieve goals stems more from external reward factors such as money and recognition.

b. In my own case, the external factor fueling my motivation was the monetary prize attached to the game.

Similarities between the two theories:

1. Both have an external factor as a reward for success. In the achievement theory, an excellent grade was the reward factor while money was the reward factor in the Incentive theory.

2. I had to attach a high degree of value to the rewards for them to motivate me.

Difference between the two theories:

1. The incentive theory explains that motivating factors are more extrinsic than intrinsic. In the achievement theory example, the intrinsic factor which was my love for learning motivated me to persevere and attain a good grade. But in the Intrinsic example, I had no love for running. I was purely motivated by the external reward.
