 Basic Human Needs

 Human beings have certain basic needs. We must have food, water, air,
and shelter to survive. If any one of these basic needs is not met, then
humans cannot survive.

 A traditional list of immediate basic needs is food (including water),

shelter, and clothing. Many modern lists emphasize that the minimum
level of consumption of basic needs also includes sanitation, education,
and health care.
 Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs

Maslow’s hierarchy of needs is a theory in psychology proposed by the

American psychologist Abraham Maslow in his 1943 paper “A Theory of
Human Motivation”. Maslow developed a theory that suggests we are
motivated to satisfy five basic needs. These needs are arranged in a
hierarchy. Maslow suggests that we seek first to satisfy the lowest level of
needs. Once this is done, we seek to satisfy each higher level of need until
we have satisfied all five needs.
 Physiological needs

Physiological needs - these are biological requirements for Human survival,

e.g. air, food, drink, shelter, clothing, warmth, sex, sleep.
 
If these needs are not satisfied the human body cannot function optimally.
Maslow considered physiological needs the most important as all the other
needs become secondary until these needs are met.
 Safety Needs

Safety Needs
Needs that provide a person with a sense of security, well-being, and
freedom from physical and emotional harm:
• Living in a safe area
• Medical insurance
• Job security
• Financial reserves
• Good health
• Protection from harm.
 Love and belongingness needs

Love and belongingness needs - after physiological and safety

needs have been fulfilled; the third level of human needs is social
and involves feelings of belongingness. The need for interpersonal
relationships motivates behavior.
Examples include friendship, intimacy, trust, and acceptance,
receiving and giving affection and love. Affiliating, being part of a
group (family, friends, work).
 Esteem Needs

Esteem Needs
After a person feels that they belong, the urge to attain a degree of important emerges.
Esteem needs can be categorized as external or internal motivators. Esteem needs are the
need for self-esteem and respect and may include:
• External Motivator
 Recognition
 Attention
 Social Status
• Internal Motivator
 Accomplishment
 Self-Respect
 Self-Actualization
Self-Actualization
The quest of reaching one’s full potential as a person leads to the summit of
Maslow’s motivation theory. Unlike lower level needs, this need is never fully
satisfied; as one grows psychologically, there are always new opportunities to
grow. Self-actualized people tend to have motivators such as:
• Truth, Justice, Wisdom , Meaning
 
Self-actualized people have frequent occurrences of peak experiences, which
are energized moments of profound happiness and harmony.
 Deficiency needs vs. growth needs

This five-stage model can be divided

into deficiency needs and growth
needs. The first four levels are often
referred to as deficiency needs (D-
needs), and the top level is known as
growth or being needs (B-needs).
