    NAME: JOHN ERICK SAN JOSE

    COURSE: 1 BPE-SWMGT

    STUDENT NUMBER: 21-01970

    GENERAL PSYCHOLOGY FINALS ASSIGNMENT

    INSTRUCTION: DISCUSS THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS BRIEFLY BUT SUBSTANTIAL!

    1. Why do some people engage in activities that most people would consider dangerous? (e.g.,
    skydiving, race car driving, stunt performing)
    -Risky behaviors are those that expose us to harm or danger in pursuit of what is perceived as a
    positive outcome. People pursue risk taking behaviors because of the benefit they think will
    come from the behavior.
    2. To what extent is our educational system reducing the intrinsic motivation to learn and replacing
    it with extrinsic motivation? How should we attempt to change the situation?
    -I was always intrinsically motivated by a lot of my education, training, and service. When you
    accept what you cannot change, sometimes, even without any effort on your part
