Solutions For An Introduction to Brain and Behavior Chapter 12 Problem 1R4

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution 1

Motivations are inferences that we make about ourselves or someone, why they engage in a particular behaviour. Regulatory and non-regulatory are the two general classes of motivated behaviours.

The regulatory behaviours are controlled by the homeostatic mechanisms and are motivated by survival of an organism (eg: eating, drinking). In contrast, the non-regulatory behaviours are not necessary for survival.

Thus, the blanks can be filled with regulatory; non-regulatory.
