According to Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, when conducting an in-depth psychological analysis of the interrelationships between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, and 'deficiency needs' versus 'growth needs', which of the following statements provides the most accurate and scientific explanation of Maslow's theory?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Understanding Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs
According to Abraham Maslow's theory of motivation, human needs are categorized into Deficiency Needs (D-needs) and Growth Needs (B-needs).
- Deficiency Needs: These include physiological, safety, love/belonging, and esteem needs. They arise due to a deprivation and are primarily extrinsically motivated or driven by basic survival and deficit reduction.
- Growth Needs: These include self-actualization and self-transcendence. They stem from a desire to grow and develop as a person, driven entirely by intrinsic motivation.
Therefore, option A accurately distinguishes the nature of D-needs and B-needs within Maslow's framework.
