Why We Do What We Do Flashcards
Ch 2
Only in it for money money
Money rewards decrease im. First cost is loss in interest in previously loved action, like in puzzle experiment. Many other costs.
Personal causation the issue. Become pawns, means to end instrumental.
Two responses to control and controls consequence
Compliance and defiance
Alienation
Ch 3
Autonomy support, kids, competition, control
Basically control might be a way to rationalize exerting power force on others.
Autonomy supper is just eg. Of good communication, using, I statements, acknowledging other person etc.
Having choices is imp. But need info and desire to learn. Personally meaningful implementation plan, tailored to individual cooperative imp.
Controlling could possibly work if great effort is made not to make it controlling, ie merit based. But quickly loses it’s significance and still has an underlying controlling aspect that would be better approached through discussion.
Focus on effort,
Self initiation, experimentation responsibility
Compassion, passion,
Autonomy, connection, movement or competence (relatedness)
NO PRESSURE
Ch 4
Preparing for a test decreases self mot. Better if learn material in order to teach it. Also see it in performance on kids drawings. Pay for performance no good, must xompensate workers to keep them working, but incentives or rewards undermine insptrinsic motivation. Also note Pizza Hut and book reading. Remember once you instate rewards there is no turning back. Stop reward stop action. Unless habit I wonder.
Ch5 autonomy support and competence , need both
Need in ourselves to understand behaviour and outcome and ask other what they think of their behaviour and outcomes. Like motivational interviewing. Not being controlling, ensuring instrumentalities, but supporting autonomy. Challenge and skill need to be optimized, think flow and all other stuff covered in course, it really is all their. Note male female dif. In praise, but mitigated by ensuring clearly controlling or non controlling.
Ch6 begins by highlighting nature nature nurture views in psyxhology from Freud to empiric behaviour. Then looks at the human development side and integrates these two models advocating humans as an organism, seeking change
Interesting ideas presented on the distinction between autonomy and independence/dependence and the need for relatedness. All part of self integration which we all strive for. Idea that children see everything as animate though behavioural PSYC sees it as inanimate.
Comes back to balance and amount of control exercised on an org ism that determines well being and outcome. Had ex. Of anorexic, girl,
Artist football player, fisherman.
Need autonomy and competence. Using rewards, requires creating more rewards!
Ch 7
Organismic integration.
Introjection can lead to
Compliance, half hearted ess, or rebellion.
Serious consequences to this form of internalization.
Shoulda and lights focused on pleasing others rather than seld. Outcome mindset, unhealthy! Look beyond actions and wonder if im or doing because…
Autonomy vs permissiveness,
REVIEW HIGHLIGHTED AREAS for aspects of autonomy support and recommendation. Esp. For parents, stress life agrees, do not realize.
Setting limits through clear explanation of rationale, Acknowelgdeing emotions in an empathic manner nd by reducing any sense of pressure/urgency aid in Utonomy support and intrinsic motivation. But must be done consistently.
Ch 8
Ego involvement? Think of school, family, friends. Mutual relationships and autonomy support. Not genetic stems from interaction of intrinsic motivation and soxial integration.
Interesting paralleled to motivational interviewing, purpose, freedom, structure responsibility, objective ess genuine, it is so hard, but quite real and it’s interesting to consider it at different level, man vs man, man vs himself, man vs object, mN vs society. All of them play to inteojections, true self esteem, vs contingent self esteem / worth, (derogation, blame, defensiveness) psychonanalytic ideas of id squeezing seem to fall here too
Ch 9
What differentiates autonomy from collectivism?
Self-knowledge.
Also remember this hcl goes into the American dream, the 6 3x3 aspirations and how we need to integrate society beliefs while acting autonomously. Insptrinsic goals lead to a he
At bier psyche. Parlty due to how parents treat us, contingent love leads to extrinsic ideals.
Relationships, community, perosnal growth.
School allows for perosnal growth, but some of use need to work on rela.
Ch11 bio psychosocial approach
Autonomy support from top down imp. To internalizTion. Cannot control patients must find t within themselves. Interaction exists between patient and doctor motivation.
If ppl would consider own motivation better outcomes, likewise to docs.
Autonomy support includes, choice acknowledge, rationale, info giving. Basically what you learnt in motivational interviewing course. Positive regard. Would you like to, what auld it take to.
