Describe the drive-reduction theory including homeostasis. Explain how this works in relation to incentives, optimal arousal, and Maslow’s hierarchy of needs.

Drive reduction theory is the idea that a phycological need creates an aroused state that drives the organism to reduce the need by doing the desired act. homeostasis is the physiological aim of drive reduction, homeostasis is the maintenance of a steady internal state. Incentives are positive or negative stimuli that lure or repel us from reducing drives. Optimal arousal theory says that some motivational behaviors actually increase arousal. last of all, Maslow's hierarchy of needs,  a pyramid diagram showing our needs on each level, going from physiological to self transcendence.

Explanation:

i just wrote this for my answer and got a decent grade, hope this helps!!

replace   c   with   a   and simplify.

a = c , b = a, q = n , 2 , a = c , 900 b= a , 700 , q = n , 600 , 2 = b o t h , b = a , q = n
