Detailed Explanation
Detailed Explanation
According to Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs theory, motivation is divided into two main categories: Deficiency Needs (D-Needs) and Growth Needs (B-Needs).
- Deficiency Needs (D-Needs): These include physiological, safety, belongingness, and esteem needs. They arise due to deprivation and once fulfilled, their motivational strength decreases.
- Growth Needs (B-Needs): These include higher-level needs such as self-actualization. Unlike D-Needs, when satisfied, they do not disappear; instead, they become stronger and motivate the individual towards continuous personal development and realization of potential.
Therefore, Option A provides the most accurate analytical distinction between the two types of needs.
