21
Q

tendency to not want to experience the unpleasantness of loss; gain is preferred. motivated using locks gaurding ones money/phone, # of varibales that affect subjective value of incentive

22
Q

A

incentive amoun: quantity/# of incentives increase their value (A is more valued then a B)

23

25
Q

incentive contrast

A

change in motivation depends on how current incentive differs in value from prior incentives

27
Q
