Abstract:
The goal of this paper is to continue the validation of a new motivation activation measure called MAM. MAM is designed to measure two variables, positivity offset and negativity bias, which are thought to be measures of underlying activation in the appetitive and aversive motivational systems. These measures can be used to create four motivational types: 1) Risk Takers, people with high activation in their appetitive or approach system and low activation in their aversive or avoid system; 2) Risk Avoiders, people with low activation in their appetitive system and high activation in their aversive system; 3) Coactives, people with high activation in both systems, and; 4) Inactives, people with low activation in both systems.
