In addition to the traditional division of relations into psychological and social ones, the importance of another dichotomy is substantiated, namely: the attitude and the relationship. A special means-end relationship is singled out which forms the framework of six meaningful motives of joint activity: creativity, communication, pragmatics, cooperation, competition, achievement. The author presents the model of motivation developed within the methodological paradigm of psychological field and demonstrates its difference from the traditional individualistic model of motivation based on (personal) attitudes.
