- socioeconomics
- pt related
- condition related
- therapy related
- healthcare team and system related
what is motivation
- an internal state that arouses, directs, and sustains human behavior
- a willingness of the learner to embrace learning w readiness as evidence of motivation
- movement in a direction to meet a goal
what is motivation affected by
- internal & external factors
factors that influence motivation can serve as either…

- a motivational incentive for one, can be an obstacle for another
facilitating or blocking factors that shape motivation to learn be classified into 3 categories:
- personal attributes –> physical, developmental, and psychological components of the learner
- enviro influences –> surroundings and attitudes of others
- learner relationship systems –> so, family, community, teacher-learner interaction
what personal attributes can impact motivation (10)
- developmental stage
- age
- gender
- emotional readiness
- values & beliefs
- sensory functioning
- cognitive ability
- educational level
- actual/perceived state of health
- severity of illness
what environmental influences can impact motivation (4)
- can promote or detact ability to learn
- physical characteristics of enviro
- accessibility and availability of human & material resources (both physical and psychological)
- different types of behavioral rewards (internal & external)
what are axioms
- rules that set the stage for motivation
- an unprovable rule or first principle accepted as true bc it is self-evident or particularly useful
what are 5 axioms r/t motivation & goal setting
- state of optimal anxiety
- learner readiness
- realistic goal setting
- learner satisfaction/success
- uncertainty reducing or uncertainty maintaining dialogue
describe a state of optimal anxiety r/t motivation: what is the optimal amt, what does too high or too low cause
- learning occurs best w mod lvl of anxiety
- at high lvls –> become self absorbed and ability to perceive enviro, conc, and learn is reduced
- low lvls = not driven to act
how can we help reduce anxiety of pts (3)
- guided imagery
- use of humor

- affirm the small steps
describe the impact of uncertainty on motivation
- can be motivating factor
- many people are unsure what is going on in healthcare enviro
- less motivated if they are not sure if the strategy will work
what are the comprehensive parameters for motivational assessment of the learner (6)
- cognitive variables
- affective variables
- physiological variables
- experiental variables
- enviro variables
- educator-learner relationship system

- capacity to learn
- readiness to learn (expressed self-determination, constructive attitude, expressed desire)
- facilitating beliefs
what affective variables should be considered during motivational assessment (2)
- expressions of constructive emotional state
