Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understanding the terms in List-I
- Hostile Aggression: This is impulsive, emotionally driven aggression aimed at hurting another person physically or psychologically.
- Instrumental Aggression: This is goal-oriented aggression used as a means to an end — for example, using aggressive play in sports to win.
- Intrinsic Motivation: Motivation that comes from internal enjoyment or satisfaction from the activity itself.
- Extrinsic Motivation: Motivation that stems from external rewards such as money, praise, medals, etc.
Step 2: Matching with List-II
- (A) matches with (II): Hostile aggression = causing harm
- (B) matches with (I): Instrumental aggression = used for non-aggressive goals
- (C) matches with (III): Intrinsic motivation = joy and satisfaction
- (D) matches with (IV): Extrinsic motivation = reward or praise
Step 3: Final Answer
Hence, the correct matching is:
(A) - (II), (B) - (I), (C) - (III), (D) - (IV)
