Detailed Explanation
Understanding Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs
According to Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs theory, the first four levels—physiological, safety, belongingness, and esteem—are termed Deficiency Needs (D-needs). These are based on the deprivation of specific items (such as food or security) and are often linked to extrinsic or preventive factors.
In contrast, the apex level of the hierarchy, Self-Actualization, is a Growth Need (B-need). It is driven by intrinsic motivation and is associated with an individual's internal capabilities, creativity, and the desire for full potential development.
- D-needs (Deficiency Needs): Lower-level needs focused on survival and reducing tension caused by deficits.
- B-needs (Growth Needs): Higher-level needs focused on personal growth and self-fulfillment.
