relationship. The proper functioning of social institutions and systems upon which they depend, rests on the performance of the variety of roles that comprise these systems. Appropriate role behavior of individuals, which constitutes the basis of societal functioning, is dependent on the presence of motivations which lead individuals to want to perform in compliance with special role expectations (Spiro: 1965). This trend of thought in both psychological and anthropological psychodynamic personality theories has placed all other processes as subordinates to the motivational processes. However, it is these traditionally subordinate processes which are to be the focal point of this study. In 1961 Anthony F. C. Wallace, working in the Hallowell-Rorschach tradition, put forth the view that psychic unity of groups is based, not on shared motivational structures, but rather on shared cognitive orientations. Wallace states that the basis of orderly cultural participation does not lie in the realm of human needs or motivations, but in a common universe of learned meanings to which individuals within a particular group are oriented. The most viable solution to the theoretical controversy mentioned above is that psychological realities in any context contain both a motivational and a cognitive aspect. If we can prove that motivation is conditioned by learned meanings and concepts then we can consider motivation to be the surface structure, and cognition and internalization to be the deep structure of behavior
