-
Student Motivation: Five key ingredients impacting student motivation are student, teacher, content, method/process, and environment. For example, the student must have access, ability, interest, and value education. The teacher must be well trained, must focus and monitor the educational process, be dedicated and responsive to his or her students, and be inspirational.

-
Negative Events: Negative events can have a more powerful impact than positive ones. Catalysts and nourishers, such as setting clear goals, allowing autonomy, providing sufficient resources and time, and helping, can support work progress. Inhibitors and toxins, such as actions that fail to support or actively hinder work, and discouraging or undermining events, respectively, can hinder work progress.
-
Employee Motivation: Work motivation has been a subject of long-standing debate. Some managers ranked recognition for good work as most important, while others put more stock in tangible incentives. Positive reinforcement and descriptive praise can be used to reinforce desired behavior. Descriptive praise emphasizes specific cooperative behaviors rather than generalized praise.
-
Food Adulteration Motivation: The motivation of food adulteration is financial, to gain an increased income from selling a foodstuff in a way which deceives customers and consumers. This may be by either passing off a cheaper material as a more expensive one or by using a less expensive ingredient to replace or extend the more expensive one. The avoidance of loss may also be an incentive for adulteration.
