Abraham Harold Maslow (April 1908 – June 1970) was an American psychologist. He is noted for his conceptualization of a “Hierarchy of human needs” and it considered as the father of humanistic psychology.
Psycological / Basic Needs
They are very basic needs
Air
Food
Water
Sleep
Clothing
Medicine
These feelings motivate us to alleviate them as soon as possible.
Safety Needs
A protective environment without threats
Establishing stability and consistency in a chaotic world
These are mostly psychological needs in nature
Security of a home
Need for law and order
Often motive people to become religious
Social Needs
The desire to belong
We want to be needed
We want to be accepted
We need to feel loved by others
Esteem Needs
Two types
Competency
Attention and recognition
Admiration has to do with the need for power
Self concept comes into play
How I see myself and how I think others will see me.
Self Actualization Needs
The growth need
The self satisfaction
Now that the people have everything met, they can maximize their potentials
