Answer:

Derive theory of motivation

Step-by-step explanation:

Derive theory of motivation is the theory that explains a person's internal tension that motivated a person to take action that reduced that tension that occurs due to some unmet needs.

For instance, a person drinks glass water to reduce the internal state of thirst.

The theory explains the biological state for example hunger thirst etc. But there are some drawbacks of this theory that a person is not motivated purely on the bases of physiological needs.

For example, people eat even they are not hungry.

Thus in the above statement, Rita's behavior is the example of derive theory of motivation.
