Aldefer's ERG Theory proposes that there are three basic human needs: existence, relatedness, and growth. It compares these needs to Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Maslow's theory focuses on fulfilling lower level needs before moving to higher needs, while Aldefer's theory suggests frustration can cause regression to lower needs. Herzberg's Two Factor Theory separates job factors into dissatisfiers/hygiene factors and satisfiers/motivators, with the former preventing dissatisfaction but not motivating, and the latter building motivation.
