Let us break down the concepts in List-I and match them with their respective characteristics in List-II step-by-step:
1. (A) Hostile Aggression matches with (II):
Hostile aggression refers to behavior that is motivated by feelings of anger or hostility and has the primary goal of causing physical or psychological pain or harm to another person. Therefore, it matches description (II): "Aggression is inflicting or causing harm physically or psychologically on someone else."
2. (B) Instrumental Aggression matches with (I):
Instrumental aggression is a behavior where harm is inflicted not as an end in itself, but as a means to achieve some other goal (such as winning a game, obtaining money, or securing a position). Thus, it matches description (I): "Aggressive behavior used to attain non-aggressive goals like winning."
3. (C) Intrinsic Motivation matches with (III):
Intrinsic motivation refers to performing an activity for its inherent satisfaction and internal rewards, rather than for some separable consequence or external reward. This directly matches description (III): "Driving force to pursue an action for fun, joy and satisfaction."
4. (D) Extrinsic Motivation matches with (IV):
Extrinsic motivation is a drive to perform a behavior or engage in an activity to earn external rewards or avoid punishment. Hence, it matches description (IV): "Driving force to pursue action for reward, money, promotion or praise."
