Summary
Motivation is that regulator psychological process that lies at the base of the human behavior guiding the latter to a certain purpose. With the help of motivation, the human being can select its desires in a personal hyperarchy depending on their importance. Motivation cannot be seen, heard or felt, but inferred only through behavior for it determines the strength and direction of the latter. Motivation excited the person differently to the external influences, making it more or less permeable to them (Cox RH, 2008). One or the same external influence can produce different effects in different people or to the same person in different moments of their life. Motivation settles and amplifies the psychological construction of the individual [2]
