  1. Maslow‘s Hierarchy of Needs Abraham Maslow (1954) developed a hierarchy of needs. At the bottom of this hierarchy are basic needs for survival of both individual and species, such as hunger, thirst, and sexuality. At the more advanced levels in the hierarchy, the needs become more personal, and at the top is self-actualization. Let us look at the hierarchy in more detail: Contributor © POSbase 2005

  8. Maslow‘s Hierarchy of Needs • Later, Maslow added two levels between esteem needs and self-actualization: • Cognitive needs: to know, understand, and explore; • Aesthetic needs: symmetry, order, and beauty. © POSbase 2005

  9. Maslow‘s Hierarchy of Needs Assumptions about high level and lower level needs: 1. Needs at a higher level evolved later in phylogeny. 2. Needs at a higher are less important for survival. 3. To live on a higher need level of means longer life, less illness, etc. 4. Higher level needs are less urgent to a person. 5. The satisfaction of higher level needs means more wishful and more positive results, which means greater happiness and a richer inner life. © POSbase 2005

  10. Maslow‘s Hierarchy of Needs Maslow did not test these assumptions empirically, and there have not been many research psychologists interested in doing so; this may have to do with the fact that Maslow‘s concepts are quite soft and resist operationalization. © POSbase 2005
