✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Detailed Explanation
According to Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs theory, motivation is divided into two primary categories:
- Deficiency Needs (D-needs): These include physiological, safety, love/belonging, and esteem needs. They arise due to deprivation (deficiency) and are located at the lower levels of the hierarchy. Their satisfaction is crucial for survival and reducing tension.
- Growth Needs (B-needs): These include self-actualization and are located at the peak of the hierarchy. They are driven by the desire for personal growth, potential realization, and self-fulfillment rather than a lack of something. Unlike D-needs, B-needs can never be fully satisfied as the pursuit of personal growth is an ongoing process.
Thus, option (b) accurately reflects the scientific and structural definitions of D-needs and B-needs as proposed by humanistic psychologists like Maslow and Rogers.
