    Study Notes

    Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs

    • Basic needs consist of physiological and safety needs.

    Physiological Needs

    • Most basic needs in Maslow's hierarchy
    • Essential for physical survival
    • Examples: air, food, drink, shelter, clothing, warmth, sleep, and health
    • If not met, the body cannot function properly
    • Motivation comes from instinct to survive

    Safety Needs

    • Need for a safe and secure environment
    • Desire for order, predictability, and control
    • Examples: emotional security, financial security, law and order, health and freedom from fear
    • Examples of actions motivated by safety needs: finding a job, obtaining health insurance, healthcare, and moving to a safer neighborhood
    • If not met, the individual feels fear and anxiety

    Love and Belonging (Social) Needs

    • Need to feel a sense of belonging and acceptance
    • Includes feeling loved and feeling love towards others
    • Motivated by natural instinct to interact
    • Involves romantic relationships, connections to family and friends, and belonging to a social group
    • If not met, the individual feels lonely and depressed

    Esteem Needs

    • Need for appreciation and respect
    • Includes self-esteem, personal worth, and feeling valued by others
    • Two categories: self-esteem (feeling confident and good about oneself) and respect (feeling valued by others)
    • If not met, the individual may feel unimportant, less confident, and develop a feeling of inferiority

    Self-Actualization Needs

    • Need to achieve full potential as human beings
    • Self-actualizing people are self-aware, concerned with personal growth, and less concerned with others' opinions
    • Can only be met once all other needs are satisfied
    • Examples: personal growth, fulfilling potential, and achieving one's goals

    Types of Needs

    • Deficiency needs: physiological, security, social, and esteem needs (arise due to deprivation)
    • Growth needs: self-actualization needs (stem from a desire to grow as a person)

    Criticisms of Maslow's Theory

    • Needs may not follow a hierarchical sequence
    • Theory is difficult to test, especially self-actualization needs
