Abstract:

Patient action in chronic disease care may not be best understood as “behavior.” Healthy patients do not just emit healthy behaviors but act as agents in their own lives. Bandura revolutionized health psychology through his “agentic” approach that emphasized patient confidence or self-efficacy. Now, the personal importance of behavior change is elicited using techniques like motivational interviewing. These and other approaches that include personal goals and identity shift our focus from behavior to action. Health action includes not just management of a disease separate from the self, but se

Abstract:

Chapter 9 considers a critique of the market and of the liberal tradition of economics that has been made both by virtue ethicists and by behavioural economists. According to this critique, market relations are based on self-interested and instrumental motivations, and so are morally impoverished; socially valuable practices (particularly those of trust and reciprocity) can depend on pro-social and intrinsic motivations which the market tends to ‘crowd out’. An important strand of behavioural economics is concerned with modelling intrinsic motivation, ‘social preferences’ and preferences for c

Abstract:

Whereas musicians may be driven by an intrinsic desire for musical growth, self-determination theory suggests this drive must also be sustained and nurtured by the social environment. Integrating the theoretical frameworks of self-determination theory and social network analysis, the chapter investigates the relationship between participatory motivation and social networks in a collegiate marching band. This study documents that members are predominantly self-determined to participate and are particularly motivated for social reasons. Highly intrinsically motivated members are more integrated

Abstract:

This article reviews literature on the study of the cognition of entrepreneurs, and how this affects their attitudes to risk. The review begins with the heuristics and biases approach. Various decision-making biases related to over-optimism are then considered. Following this perceived self-efficacy, intrinsic motivation and intentions-based models are discussed. Some theories dealing specifically with attitudes to risk are then covered. These include prospect theory, Kahneman and Lovalo's model of risk-taking, and Das and Teng's theory of risk horizons and future orientations. Finally, the op

Abstract:

The previous chapter showed that our beliefs about which actions we ought to perform frequently have an effect on what we do. But Humean theories, holding that all motivation has its source in desire, insist on connecting such beliefs with an antecedent motive. However, reason needn’t be a slave to the passions. We can allow moral (or normative) beliefs a more independent role to generate intrinsic desires by developing an anti-Humeanism (distinct from internalism) that is empirically sound. Since an anti-Humean theory provides perfectly ordinary and intelligible explanations of actions, Humea

Athletes have multiple motivations for sport participation that can wax and wane over time, particularly over a lifetime of sport participation. The purpose of this chapter is to explore a plethora of atheoretical research examining why athletes compete in disability sport. The many reasons that athletes with disabilities cite for sport engagement are similar to those of able-bodied athletes. However, there are also reasons that are unique to a person’s impairment. People with disabilities often have chronic pain, so physical activity via sport can help with pain management. People with disabi

Abstract:

Awards are non-material and symbolic rewards, and do not necessarily have to go with money. Award givers may emit signals of quality, of intent, and of their beliefs. Managers can use the signalling functions of awards to subtly steer the behaviour of (present and future) employees, without having to recur to control through explicit, conditional incentives. Awards can also give rise to signalling failures. They have to be used with moderation, and they can rarely be substituted for money where money is already in place. If well designed, awards can raise intrinsic motivation, as the recipient

Abstract:

This chapter argues that there is converging evidence that attests to the intrinsic relational nature of human beings at the subpersonal level. Also, developmental psychology demonstrates that intersubjectivity is an innate, primary system of motivation that organizes human behaviour towards valued goals felt as need and desire by human beings. There are two such valued goals for the intersubjectivity motivational system: the first is the need to read the feelings and intentions of another; the second is the need to establish or re-establish self-cohesion and self-identity.

This book has never been published before, although its contents have provided the basis for hundreds of papers, theses, and books on geostatistics. The chapters are based on the lectures of a summer course given by Georges Matheron in 1970; initially written in French, they were translated into English by Charles Huijbregts. They do not contain mathematical technicalities or practical case studies; instead, they present major topics like estimation variances, kriging systems, mining estimation, and intrinsic theory, all of which are established by simple proofs.

Abstract:

This chapter considers the use of economic, political, and legal incentives. After presenting three notable reasons for using positive incentives—including the fact that they are not coercive—it considers several objections to their use. These include, centrally, the worry that they reward those who commit egregious wrongdoing and therefore are problematic in terms of desert. It also considers the potential moral hazard that such inducements will encourage others to commit wrongdoing and the potential for incentives to ‘crowd out’ intrinsic motivation and to undermine morally valuable internat

Abstract:

Drawing on real-life examples and the philosophical literature on moral rules, this chapter discusses the problems that can arise because organizations are rule-based structures. From a moral perspective, rules are double-edged: there are good moral reasons to obey them, especially in organizational contexts, but they are blunt tools that can do injustice to the underlying social reality, which is far more fine-grained and complex than rules could ever grasp. In addition, rules have a psychological dimension, especially when they are tied to incentives: they can refocus our attention, and crow

Honours are expressions of appreciation that can take various forms, ranging from orders, crosses, medals, decorations, prizes, trophies, and certificates to honorific titles and other awards. They can be found in virtually all spheres of life. There are awards far beyond the political and military sectors: in the humanitarian sector, in architecture, arts (film, television, radio, dance, music, literature), design, education, journalism, advertising, games, and sports. Honours also play a large role in academia and business. Awards are not only widespread; they also have a long history. Award

This chapter examines the major patterns and drivers of interlinked geographical and career mobilities of Indian-born researchers and scientists. Based on a global survey and in-depth interviews, this study shows that the mobility of Indian researchers is mainly driven by an intrinsic motivation to internationalize their scientific careers, but has also to do with the characteristics of the research environment in India. Moving abroad enables researchers to acquire expertise in a field of research that is not sufficiently developed back home, and provides exposure to research facilities and pe

Abstract:

Awards directly and succinctly cater to one of the major human desires, namely, to be recognized and appreciated. Awards can raise recipients’ intrinsic motivation, make them more creative, and induce them to identify with the task. Awards establish a bond of loyalty to the giver. Monetary incentives, in particular pay-for-performance, may be applied to simple tasks. With more complex tasks, monetary incentives risk leading to multitasking and manipulation of the performance measurement and criteria. There is a lack of comprehensive and reliable data.

Abstract:

Third-party punishment occurs among insect species, cleaner fish, and non-human primates. This suggests that organisms do not need a sophisticated sense of morality to be punitive. Why, then, did humans evolve a moral punishment instinct? The main proposition of this chapter is that people evolved a sense of morality as a consequence of their punishment instincts. In ancestral groups of hunter-gatherers, punishment had genetic consequences, as it frequently meant death, exclusion, or unattractively low social standing. Punishment therefore has put social selection pressures on our ancestors to

Global exploration during the eighteenth century involved not only European expansion into North and South America, polar exploration and the emergence of Australia and the Pacific islands, but also Japanese Edo-era and other Asian exploration of the world, including the Americas. It also encompassed increasing numbers of non-Europeans traveling to Europe and other regions unfamiliar to them, some voluntarily, but many others under constraint. In traditional historical narratives, exploration was considered intrinsic to the Enlightenment as a scientific project and was conducted, largely by Eu
