According to Maslow's theory, metamotivation refers to:

a. the motivation of self-actualizers.
c. the motivation driven by deficiency.
b. constantly changing motivation.
d. extrinsic motivation.

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: Maslow proposed a distinct type of motivation for self-actualizers which he called metamotivation (sometimes called B-motivation or Being). The prefix "meta" means after or beyond. Metamotivation, then, indicates that it goes beyond psychology's traditional idea of motivation.
