With reference to the 'Hierarchy of Needs' theory propounded by Abraham Maslow, when micro-analyzing the journey from Physiological Needs to Self-Actualization, which of the following statements most accurately defines the ontological relationship between the high-level psychological and low-level biological components of this theory?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
According to Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs theory, this model of motivation divides human needs into five sequential levels. The initial levels (physiological and safety needs) are called 'Deficiency Needs' (D-needs) because their non-fulfillment creates stress and deprivation in the body. In contrast, 'Self-Actualization' located at the very top is called a 'Growth Need' (B-need), which is linked to the full development of an individual's inner potentials. According to Maslow, until the lower-level deficiency needs are satisfactorily met, an individual cannot be motivated toward higher-level growth needs. Therefore, option (C) is the most accurate and scientifically valid statement.
