Detailed Explanation
Explanation of Maslow's Hierarchy and Intrinsic Motivation
According to Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs theory, human motivation operates under a specific hierarchy where lower-level Deficiency Needs (D-needs), such as physiological and safety needs, must be satisfied first before an individual is motivated toward higher-level Growth Needs (B-needs) and self-actualization.
- D-needs: Driven by deprivation and extrinsic factors.
- B-needs: Associated with personal growth, self-actualization, and intrinsic motivation.
- Transition: Higher psychological growth cannot typically occur if basic survival needs are chronically unmet.
For more detailed information, you can refer to the Wikipedia reference on Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs.
