Detailed Explanation
Detailed Explanation of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs
According to Abraham Maslow's humanistic psychology, the lower four needs in the hierarchy (physiological, safety, belongingness, and esteem) are termed Deficiency Needs (D-Needs), which arise due to deprivation.
In contrast, Self-Actualization, situated at the apex of the hierarchy, is a Growth Need (B-Need). It is driven by the internal motivation to maximize one's potential and achieve self-fulfillment rather than satisfying an external lack.
- D-Needs: Motivated by a sense of missing something (e.g., hunger, lack of safety or respect).
- B-Needs: Motivated by the desire for personal growth and realizing one's ultimate capabilities.
Therefore, option C correctly distinguishes self-actualization as an intrinsic growth need.
