PSYCHOLOGY AND LIFE
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
1. Motivation and emotion are constructs that have much in common, though each has significant
aspects that distinguish it from the other. Discuss with the class what seems to be the primary
difference between the two concepts? Why is it significant?
2. Have the class think of times when they felt strongly motivated but not “emotional.” Is it also
possible to feel strong emotion, without simultaneously feeling motivated to act in some way on
those feelings?
