✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Understanding Maslow's D-Needs and B-Needs
According to Abraham Maslow's humanist theory of motivation, needs are categorized into two main groups: Deficiency Needs (D-needs) and Growth Needs (B-needs).
- Deficiency Needs (D-needs): These include physiological needs, safety, love/belonging, and esteem. They arise due to deprivation and are driven by the desire to reduce tension or fulfill a missing requirement.
- Growth Needs (B-needs): These include self-actualization and self-transcendence. They stem from a desire to grow, develop human potential, and achieve personal fulfillment rather than from a lack of something.
Therefore, option B provides the most accurate psychological distinction between the two categories of needs.
