Learning theory:
Learning theory recognises that humans have drives, such as hunger & thirst,
which we are motivated to reduce (for example, when we feel hungry we will
want to get rid of this feeling by finding food).
Drives related to biological needs (like food) are called primary drives.
A baby has several primary drives, such as
comfort & security, but the main one is
hunger.
Because the mother is most often the one
providing food, she becomes associated with
the satisfaction of this primary drive – this
kind of association links to classical
conditioning.
