The phenomena of motivation cannot be studied separately as an
independent research topic because motivation is highly interrelated
to cognition, emotion, learning, and decision-making process. The
overarching aim of this volume, therefore, is to provide new insight
into a unified grand theory of motivation by integrating noteworthy
neuroscience research findings on motivation. This volume is dedicated
to advancing our understanding of brain mechanisms of underlying
various motivational phenomena, including reward, approach, autonomy,
intrinsic motivation, learning, effort, curiosity, and self-control.
The volume is divided into four parts: The first part introduces
classical but fundamental issues such as reward, approach, and
individual differences. The second part deals with intrinsic
motivation including autonomy and curiosity. The third one examines
recent approaches on the interface between motivation and cognition in
learning and decision-making. The last part focuses on practically
significant issues pertaining to self-regulation development.
