Detailed explanation-1: -Motivation is the result of an interaction between human needs and incentives.
Detailed explanation-2: -The arousal theory of motivation suggests that people are driven to perform actions in order to maintain an optimum level of physiological arousal.
Detailed explanation-3: -Researchers Robert Yerkes and John Dodson studied the relationship between the level of arousal and performance in a task, and their finding is known as the Yerkes-Dodson Law. The Yerkes-Dodson Law states that for easy tasks, the higher the level of physiological or mental arousal, the higher the performance.
Detailed explanation-4: -The relationship between changes in arousal and motivation is often expressed as an inverted-U function (also known as the Yerkes-Dodson law). The basic concept is that, as arousal level increases, performance improves, but only to a point, beyond which increases in arousal lead to a deterioration in performance.
