17 As Worchel and Shebilske 1989 pointed out that the first step in
experiencing emotions is appraising judging or interpreting the situation. It determines whether we view the situation as threatening or nonthreatening, and it
also determines our response to the situation p. 373-377. Emotions, proposed by some psychologists above, can be underlined that
the major focus of emotion theory is on how people can learn to develop emotions that sustain goal-directed behavior and to neutralize or deflect emotions that tend
to undermine goal-directed behavior. From some theories of some psychologists above, the writer prefer to use the theory of emotion proposed by Jung supported
with theories by Leeper, Lazarus, and Worchel and Shebilske in order to analyze the influence of Jinda’s emotion toward her motivation.
2.5 Relationship of Emotion and Motivation
The relationship of emotion and motivation is presented in order to know the influence of someone’s emotion towards his or her motivation as seen in
Jinda’s experiences. Emotion is different from motivation in that there is no necessarily goal orientation affiliated with it. Kleinginna and Kleinginna 1981,
as quoted by Huitt 2001, explain that emotion occurs as a result of an interaction between perception of environmental stimuli, hormonal responses to these
perceptions, and subjective cognitive labeling of these feelings p. 345. Based on the definition proposed by Kleinginna and Kleinginna above, emotions give rise
to affective experiences, stimulate the individual to generate cognitive

18 explanations, trigger a variety of internal adjustment, and elicit expressive, goal-
directed, and adaptive behaviors. According to Jung 1978, emotion is related to motivation because it
sometimes operates as motivating factors, and influence motivation in the process of response to something p. 4. Furthermore, motivation, according to Smith
1982, influences someone’s behavior in order to the condition or to gain something p. 282. The example is that a student who is going to have a final
examination feels afraid of being failed in that examination. His fear motivates him to study hard. In that case, he spends his time for studying rather than playing
with his friends, watching television, even reading his favorite comics. His motivation influences his behavior in order to gain his goal that is to pass the
exam. This situation is just the same with what Jinda was faced will. Her motivation also influences her behavior to gain her goal that is to live freely
without land-rent system so that she can feel the prosperity. Motives and emotions include a variety of important inner experiences
associated with our daily behavior. Emotions are feelings that may occur in reaction to motivated behavior, such as when agression may be accompanied by
fear or anger. At other times emotions may serve as motivating factors in themselves, such as when we try to escape from the unpleasant feelings associated
with dangerous situations.
