Study Notes
Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs
- Maslow's hierarchy of needs outlines five levels of human needs in a pyramid structure.
- Levels, from bottom to top: Physiological, Safety, Love and Belonging, Esteem, and Self-Actualization.
- Lower-level needs must be satisfied before individuals can focus on higher-level needs.
- Achievement motivation is a combination of deficiency needs and growth needs to realize full potential.
Achievement Motivation
- Defined as the need for achievement, a key factor in aspirations, effort, and persistence when performance is evaluated against a standard.
- Atkinson's Achievement Motivation Theory (1966) explores the relationship between individual characteristics and the need to achieve.
- It considers individual's competitive drive to achieve and set goals.
- Internal factors: willingness, determination, punctuality, drive.
- External factors: pressures, expectations, targets set by organizations, family, or society.
- Extrinsic motivation comes from external incentives, rewards, or punishments.
- Intrinsic motivation arises from the pleasure of the activity itself, not external benefits.
- Two needs drive achievement motivation: the need to achieve successful goals, and the motive to avoid failure.
- Individuals with a high motive to avoid failure may experience anxieties, diversion of attention, and poor performance due to fear of failure.
