• The Conscious Id (2013, background): “Instinctual motivations are initially objectless (cf. the SEEKING concept of Panksepp; Wright & Panksepp, 2012), but sympathetic learning rapidly leads to remembered objects of desire coming to mind (cf. the “wanting” concept of Berridge, 1996).”
• A grand theory of motivation: Why not? (2016, unknown): “Jaak Panksepp refers to this as ‘‘seeking’’, or as the seeking urge (Wright and Panksepp 2012).”
