Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hull's drive-reduction theory proposes that organisms have biological needs, such as hunger or thirst, that create a state of arousal or tension. This tension motivates the organism to engage in behaviors that reduce the arousal and satisfy the need, thereby achieving homeostasis. Therefore, the theory suggests that humans learn to engage in behaviors that reduce a state of arousal.
