Abstract
ABSTRACT We use analytic pluralism to discuss and analyze a data excerpt from the medical rehabilitation of an inpatient with spinal cord injury and his physical therapist to examine how the concept of motivation is used in clinical practice.

We present and argue for multiple ontologies as a new way forward to understanding complex human phenomena such as motivation.
