Study Notes
Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs
- Together, physiological and safety needs make up the "basic needs"
- Physiological needs are the most basic and essential for physical survival
- Examples: air, food, drink, shelter, clothing, warmth, sleep, and health
- Motivation comes from the instinct to survive
- Safety needs involve the desire for a safe and secure environment
- Examples: emotional security, financial security, law and order, health, and freedom from fear
- Actions motivated by safety needs include finding a job, obtaining health insurance, healthcare, and moving to a safer neighborhood
- When these needs are not met, the individual feels fear and anxiety
Love and Belonging Needs
- This is the third level in Maslow's hierarchy of needs
- Involves the need to feel a sense of belonging and acceptance
- Includes feeling loved and feeling love towards others
- Motivated by the natural instinct of humans to interact
- Includes romantic relationships, connections to family and friends, and feeling part of a social group
- When these needs are not met, the individual feels lonely and depressed
Esteem Needs
- At the fourth level in Maslow's hierarchy of needs
- Involves the need for appreciation and respect
- Includes feelings of accomplishment and prestige
- Categories of esteem needs: self-esteem (feeling confident and good about oneself) and respect (feeling valued by others)
- When esteem needs are not met, the individual may feel unimportant, less confident, and develop a feeling of inferiority
Self-Actualization Needs
- At the very peak of Maslow's hierarchy of needs
- Involves the need to fulfill one's full potential as a human being
- Self-actualizing people are self-aware, concerned with personal growth, and less concerned with the opinions of others
- Can only be met once all other needs are satisfied
Types of Needs on Maslow's Pyramid
- Deficiency needs: physiological, security, social, and esteem needs that arise due to deprivation
- Growth needs: self-actualization needs that stem from a desire to grow as a person
