Under Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Theory, when analyzing the philosophical and psychological nature of 'Deficiency Needs' (D-needs) and 'Growth Needs' (B-needs), if an individual, after fulfilling basic physiological and safety needs, is motivated to achieve their hidden potentials, abilities, and the highest state of self-actualization, which of the following statements is most authentic and scientifically true regarding Maslow's theory?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
According to Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs theory, motivation consists of two main categories: Deficiency Needs (D-needs) and Growth Needs (B-needs).
Key Concepts:
- Deficiency Needs (D-needs): These include physiological and safety needs. They arise due to deprivation and their fulfillment reduces tension by restoring homeostasis in the body or mind.
- Growth Needs (B-needs): These include self-actualization and cognitive needs. They do not stem from a lack of something, but rather from a desire to grow, seek meaning, and develop one's utmost potential.
Therefore, option B accurately describes the fundamental psychological distinction between D-needs and B-needs as established by Maslow.
