Drive theories (such as hull"s): expresses how internal states push (biological mechanisms). ex. when you are hungry, you have a hunger drive that motivates you to find something to eat. Incentive theories: look at how external stimuli pull. What external stimuli will you be choosing? ex. you could have liver, or apple pie. apple pie is really reawarding, and it will pull you into it: pebb"s optimal level of arousal theory. Says when arousal/drive is too low or too high, we try to attain an optimal level of arousal.
