B. People are said to have an optimal level of tension that they maintain by increasing or decreasing stimulation.	II. Drive Reduction Theory
C. Behavior arises from internal drives to push the organism to satisfy physiological needs	III. Arousal Theory
D. A person's view of himself can affect the individual's perception of success or failure.	IV. Self-Determination Theory

Correct option is C

A - IV (Self-Determination Theory)
Definition: The social context influences motivation by supporting or hindering autonomy, competence, and relatedness.

B - III (Arousal Theory)
Definition: People seek an optimal level of tension and adjust their stimulation accordingly (e.g., seeking excitement or relaxation).

C - II (Drive Reduction Theory)
Definition: Behavior is driven by internal physiological needs that create tension, pushing the organism to act (e.g., hunger → eating).

D - I (Self-Theory of Motivation)
Definition: A person’s self-concept influences their perception of success or failure.

Thus, the correct answer is Option 3: A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I.

Information Booster:
-Self-Determination Theory (Deci & Ryan, 1985): Motivation is influenced by autonomy, competence, and relatedness.
-Arousal Theory (Yerkes-Dodson Law): Performance is best at moderate levels of arousal (too high or low reduces efficiency).
-Drive Reduction Theory (Hull, 1943): Biological needs create internal drives that push behavior to restore balance.
-Self-Theory of Motivation (Dweck, 1986): Growth mindset leads to higher motivation, while a fixed mindset reduces persistence.
-Extrinsic vs. Intrinsic Motivation: Self-determination theory emphasizes the balance between external rewards and internal motivation.
-Application in Education: Teachers can foster motivation by promoting autonomy and reducing performance pressure.
-Motivation in the Workplace: Arousal and self-determination theories guide strategies for increasing employee engagement.
