Differentiate between deficiency needs and growth needs in Maslow's hierarchy.
On Jul 26, 2024
The three lowest needs--physiological,security,and affiliation--are also known as deficiency needs.According to Maslow,unless these needs are satisfied,an individual will fail to develop into a healthy person,both physically and psychologically.In contrast,esteem and self-actualization needs are known as growth needs.Emergence of these needs as motivators will occur only after the deficiency needs have been largely satisfied.The satisfaction of growth needs helps a person to grow and develop as a human being.Thus,as long as nothing happens to block their emergence,the growth needs will come to motivate most people over time as they develop into healthy individuals.
