Regarding Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Theory, which of the following options represents the most accurate psychological distinction between 'Deficiency Needs' (or D-needs) and 'Growth Needs' (or B-needs)?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Abraham Maslow divided needs into two major categories in his hierarchy of needs theory of motivation: Deficiency Needs (or D-needs) and Growth Needs (or B-needs). D-needs (such as physiological, safety, love and belongingness, and esteem needs) are activated when a deficiency is felt, and their satisfaction reduces motivational tension. In contrast, B-needs (especially self-actualization) are motivated by an individual's inner growth, full utilization of potential, and self-realization. For a detailed study of this theory, the Wikipedia reference can be consulted.
