The chapters examine the origins of a given action rather than their superficial appearance, which can often  be misleading. Kovac integrates the existing knowledge of the field of motivation into a greater theoretical framework by adopting both analytical and holistic perspectives. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis theoretical framework suggests that all human behaviour evolves from the three fundamental underlying tendencies connected to the concepts of control, affiliation and self-expression that are further modified by the mechanism of balanced dual tension. These tendencies are conceptualised as systems of interrelated psychological needs that guide and govern a variety of human actions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003eAs such, this book should be useful to upper-level students and researchers of cognitive and social psychology and all scholars interested in human motivation.  \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2020-11-04\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781349691944\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1057\/978-1-137-47056-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 249\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Palgrave Macmillan UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44752422273164,"sku":"9781349691944","price":58.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781349691944.jpg?v=1775916890","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781349691944","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
