Thirst, sexual desire, and hunger are primary drives which are basic biological needs required for survival. Secondary drives are learned or acquired through experience and do not pertain to immediate biological needs. Reduction refers to the drive theory which suggests that motivation arises from the need to reduce internal tension caused by unmet needs. Internalized drives are related to values, beliefs, and goals that are personally meaningful to an individual.
