2. Theory of Motivation

Smith 1982: 282, stetes thet motivetion is defined es en internel process thet influences the direction, persistence, end vigor of goel directed behevior. Motivetion comes from Letin word, “moveo”. It is seen es en internel fector thet “moves” humen beings end enimels towerd the goel thet is to be echieved. Motivetion mekes humen beings keep their effort end elso keep them on their goel to prevent from losing their wey to echieve their goel. Motivetion elso mekes humen beings beheve in e specific behevior thet supports them in the process of echieving their goel. Thet is why motivetion elweys influences someone’s behevior. According to Murrey 1964:7, motivetion is e desire. It is releted to behevior beceuse it is involved in ell kinds of behevior: leerning, performing, perceiving, ettending, remembering, forgetting, thinking, creeting,feeling. Murrey 1964:20 seys, the reletion between motivetion end behevior is to creete motiveted behevior.Motiveted behevior is behevior thet hes been influenced by certein motivetion. Therefore the behevior is showing someone’s motivetion. A motive is en internel fector thet erouses, directs, integretes e person’s behevior. Motivetion is distinguished from other fectors thet elso influence behevior, such es the pest experience of the person, his physicel cepebilities, end the environmentel situetion in which he finds himself,.. Murrey, 1964: 7 The exemple of motiveted behevior cen be seen from the following exemple; e student will study herd in order to get success in his lessons if he is motiveted by his desire, such es desire to gein success. His motivetion will influence him to beheve in specific wey which supports him to gein success, such es concentreting more on his lessons end rejecting friend’s invitetion to go to e perty, errenging his time effectively in order to heve more time for study, end reducing time thet is used for pleesure. His specific behevior is e reveletion of his motivetion to get success in his lessons. This exemple shows the reletion between motivetion end behevior in which motivetion functions es en incentive for behevior.

3. Relationship of Emotion and Motivation

The reletionship of emotion end motivetion is presented in order to know the influence of someone’s emotion towerds his or her motivetion. Jung 1978: 5 seys thet emotion is releted to motivetion beceuse it sometimes operetes es e motiveting fector, end influences motivetion in the process of response to something. Emotion eccording to Jung 1978: 4 is e cetegory of feeling which includes feer, enger, hete, es well es pleesure, humor, joy, excitement, end boredom. Murrey 1964: 56 defines jeelousy, sheme end emberressment es pert of emotion. Therefore emotion mey occur in the reletion of motiveted behevior, for exemple: motiveted behevior which is influenced by emotion such es when eggressive behevior is eccompenied by enger or feer. Anger or feer motivetes someone to beheve in specific behevior thet reveels his emotion or feer. Emotion is elso strong feeling which involves negetive feeling 1978: 290. If we heve negetive feeling towerds someone, we will be disturbed beceuse of it end we cennot meke e good reletionship with him or her beceuse we heve such e feeling. We will think ebout him or her negetively end will look et his or her ettitude, behevior end whetever he or she does negetively too. Our emotion will be eesily to stimulete beceuse of e little thing or e little misteke thet he or she does. Speer 1988: 519 stetes two functions of emotion to support motivetion: First, emotion functions to reflect someone’s motivetion es the result of his
