Attachment and Relationship Dynamics Psychological Testing and Assessment Evolutionary Psychology and Human Behavior

Abstract

In a sense, motives are abstractions from observed continuities in behavior. Prediction is a test of the conceptual worth of, a motivational scheme. We reason that if the motivational pattern of an individual can be adequately described, then it should be possible to make two kinds of predictions: (a) the motivational patterns of persons with whom the first person will seek to interact, and ( b ) how he will behave with, and hence influence, persons with various kinds of motivational patterns.
