This is an example of the linguistic relativity hypothesis.

Explanation:

The Linguistic Relativity Hypothesis is also known as the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis and it establishes that the structure of human language is instrumental in how individual people conceptualize the world around them. Every language helps to structure the world in a unique way so that the world view of people who speak different languages is different. In this view, the native language a person speaks puts limits on how they see the world and to what extent they can understand other ways of understanding the world. Human languages thus reflect the cultural values of the people who speak it and reflect the wider cultural mentality of the speakers.

While Jill was playing soccer, she grew thirsty. Midway through her game she couldn't run anymore, and she wanted to stop playing. According to this situation, which theory of motivation could account for Jill wanting to stop playing and get a drink of water?

Answers

Answer:

Drive reduction theory.

Explanation:

According to the Drive reduction theory of motivation, when an individual is experiencing a need of psychological or physiological origin, is followed by a drive (motivation) to satisfy, or in other words, reduce this need. If the drive is not satisfied, it becomes more intensive with time up to the point that an individual will do everything to satisfy the drive.

Here, Jill experienced the drive to satisfy (reduce) her physiological need to drink water while playing. Meanwhile, it was not too strong. She kept playing but the need to satisfy her thirst became so strong (intensified) that she decided to stop playing.
