Detailed Explanation
Detailed Explanation
Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Theory posits that human needs are arranged in a specific sequential order, where foundational physiological and safety needs must be satisfied before an individual can progress toward love, esteem, and ultimately Self-Actualization.
On the other hand, David McClelland's Three Needs Theory focuses specifically on three socio-psychological needs—Achievement (nAch), Affiliation (nAff), and Power (nPow)—which closely correspond to the middle and upper tiers (belonging, esteem, and self-fulfillment) of Maslow's motivational framework.
- Maslow's Hierarchy: Bottom-up progression from deficit needs to growth needs.
- McClelland's Theory: Focuses on learned, acquired psychological needs related to workplace and social motivation.
Therefore, Option (b) accurately defines the scientific and interrelated nature of both motivation theories in child development and pedagogy.
