    Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs: By: Rhica Mae P. Sibag

    Uploaded by

    Jade Harris Colorje
    Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is a motivational theory proposed by psychologist Abraham Maslow. It describes human motivation and involves a five-tier model of human needs. The needs progress from basic physiological needs at the bottom, to safety, love and belongingness, esteem, to self-actualization needs at the top. Maslow stated that lower level needs must be satisfied before higher level needs can be pursued. The theory helps explain human behavior and motivation but can be difficult to test scientifically.

    About Maslow's hierarchy of needs

    • Maslow first introduced his concept of a hierarchy of


    needs in 1943 his paper “A theory of human motivation “.

    • It is the motivational theory in psychology.

    • Pyramid shaped and comprising with five –tier model of


    human needs.
    Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs

    Self – Actualization / Fulfillment

    Esteem

    Love & Belonging

    Safety

    Physiological
    Physiological Needs
    Physiological needs are those required to sustain life or
    requirements for human survival, such as:
    air
    water
    nourishment
    sleep
    According to Maslow's theory, if such needs are not satisfied then one's
    motivation will arise from the quest to satisfy them.
    Higher needs such as social needs and esteem are not felt until one has
    met the needs basic to one's body functioning.
    Safety needs
    Once physiological needs are met, one's attention
    turns to safety and security in order to be free from
    the threat of physical and emotional harm. Such
    needs might be fulfilled by:

    Living in a safe area


    Medical insurance
    Job security
    Financial reserves
    According to Maslow's hierarchy,
    if a person feels that he or she is in harm's way,
    higher needs will not receive much attention.
    Love & Belonging needs
    Once a person has met the lower level physiological and
    safety needs, higher level needs become important, the
    first of which are social needs. Social needs are those
    related to interaction with other people and may include:

    Need for friends

    Need for belonging

    Need to give and receive love


    Esteem
    Once a person feels a sense of "belonging", the
    need to feel important arises. Esteem needs may
    be classified as internal or external.

    Internal esteem needs are those related to self-


    esteem such as self respect, achievement,
    strength, competence, mastery, self confidence,
    independence and freedom. Its won through
    Experiences

    External esteem needs are those such as social


    status, recognition, respect for others, fame,
    prestige and attention.

    Imbalance of these needs can lead to an inferiority


    complex, weakness and helplessness.
    Self-Actualization
    Self-actualization is the summit of Maslow's hierarchy of needs. It is
    the quest of reaching one's full potential as a person. Unlike lower
    level needs, this need is never fully satisfied; as one grows
    psychologically there are always new opportunities to continue to
    grow.

    Self-actualized people tend to have needs such as:


    Truth
    Justice
    Wisdom
    Meaning

    Self-actualized persons have frequent occurrences of peak


    experiences, which are energized moments of profound happiness
    and harmony.

    According to Maslow, only a small percentage of the population


    reaches the level of self-actualization.
    Advantages & Limitations
    • Simple to • Difficult to forecast human
    understand. behaviour
    • Relevant in all fields. • Difficult to measure
    • Instigates avoiding work
    Leads to inefficiency
    Criticism of Maslow's theory.
    • The needs may not follow a definite hierarchical order.
    for example: if safety needs is not satisfied , the social
    need may emerge
    •The need hierarchy model may not apply at all times in
    all places.
