1.5 Definition of Terms
There are several terms as the focus of the discussion needed to be clarified to avoid misunderstanding:
1. Murray states that motivation is an internal factor that arouses, directs, and
integrates a person’s behavior 7. Another definition of it is motivation is broadly concerned with the contemporary determinants of choice direction,

integrate human behavior which directs them to their goal.
2. Love is a feeling of strong emotion which wants to share something together or
in another word love is related to a sense of strong affection and attachment. Love is not a single feeling but an emotion built from two or more feelings.

abstract concept of love is love usually refers to a deep, ineffable feeling of caring to another person. American psychologist Zick Rubin states that three

3. Need is one of the aspects of psychology that motivates human being in doing
some activities to be the reason for attempting something Maslow 69. In this study, the term need refers to all the necessities felt by Hope Donahue that
motivate her to do some actions for its satisfaction.
