Motor factorThis is a featured page

In psychodynamics, motor factor is the amount of force or the measure of the demand for work which the pressure of an instinct represents. [1] The term was introduced in 1915 by Austrian psychologist Sigmund Freud, likely on the model of the thermodynamic terms “motive force” or motive power (1690).
