Maslow’sHierarchyofNeeds

Maslow’sHierarchyofNeedsisavaluableassessmenttoolthatisusedinmanydifferentprofessions,particularlythoseinthefieldsofeducationandhealthcare.Theideasofneedsareaddressedinorder,asthebodyresolvesthemostbasicneedsforsurvivalbeforemovingontomorecomplexneeds.

ManyeducationalprogramsinthehealthcarefieldteachMaslow’shierarchyinordertoaddresstheneedsofpatientsandwheretheyareintheirlifefromapsychologicalperspective,simplybecauseithelpsidentifyandaddresstheneedsofthoseparticularpatients.

Theideaofusingahierarchypyramidhelpsustolayoutthestagesofneed,startingwiththebaseofthepyramid,whichlooksatphysiologicalneeds.Asweworkourwayupthepyramid,theneedsstarttobecomemorecomplex,andincludesafetyneeds,socialneeds,esteemneeds,andfinally,attheverytop,wehaveself-actualization.ThisarticleexploresthetheoriesofAbrahamMaslowindetail,aswellasaddressesthecontroversiesthathavebeenquestionedinhistheory.ThisarticlewillalsoevaluatetheimpactofthesetheoriesonhumanbehaviorandassesseachofthecomponentscomprisedwithinMaslow’sHierarchyPyramid.

PhysiologicalNeeds

Physiologicalneedsareinfluencedgenerallythroughthecravingsthatwehave.Ifapersonisthirsty,heorshefindsadrinkingfountain.Similarly,iftheindividualishungry,heorshewillfindfood.Ifthebodyisbeingdeprivedofoxygen,itwillsurelyreact.Ifthereisavitamindeficiency,thebodyhassubtlewaysoffulfillingthatneed.

Oneexampleofhowthebodyregulatesitselfonaphysiologicallevelisbyhomeostasis.Homeostasissimplymeanstoregulate.Apartofthehumanbrain,calledthehypothalamus,playsanimportantroleinkeepingthebodyregulatedbycontrollingthebody’sthermostat,whichiscontrolledbythereleaseofseveralhormonescalledgonadotropins.

Advancingupthehierarchypyramid,thenextlevelrepresentstheneedtobelongonasociallevel.Thesociallevelgenerallybecomesthepriorityonlyafterthephysiologicalandsafetyneedshavebeensufficientlymetandmaintained.Asenseofbelongingcanbefeltwhenanindividualbecomesmorefocusedonthedesiretobuildrelationshipswithothers.Thisincludesthedesireforaromanticpartner,tohaveclosefriends,andmaybetogetmarriedandhavechildren.

Asenseoraneedtobelong,atanystage,isinfluencedbyseveralfactors.Someoftheseinfluences,forexample,aresocio-economicinfluences:

EsteemNeeds

Oncetheneedsofphysiology,safetyandbelonginghavebeenmet,theindividualwillnowmoveontotheneedsoftheirself-esteem.Self-esteem,likeallthepriorneeds,mustalsobemaintained.Thisisthehighestplatforminthecategoryofdeficitneeds.Self-esteembeginstoestablishitselfinlifeasearlyasagetwo.Maslow’shierarchyaddressestwolevelsofself-esteem.Oneofthoseisalowerlevelandtheotherisahigherlevel.

Thelowerformofself-esteemisdirectlyrelatedtoanindividual’sego,meaningthatthereisastrongneedtoberespectedbyothers.Withinthislowerform,theindividualstillremainsfocusedonacceptancebyothers.Thislowerformofself-esteemismetwhenanindividualhasestablishedalevelofstatus,recognition,fame,reputationandappreciation,justtonameafew.Theymayalsorequiresomereinforcementorvalidationofsomekindinorderforthislowerformofself-esteemtobemaintained.

Thehigherformofself-esteemthatMaslowaddressesisthatofself-respect.Thishigherformofself-esteemrequireslessmaintenancebecausethroughaccomplishment,itbecomesapermanentpartofwhotheindividualis.Wecansaythatonceapersonhasgainedrespectforhimselforherself,itismuchhardertolosethatrespectortohaveittakenaway.Theideaofconfidenceinability,themasteryofsomething,orthecompetencethatisestablishedinwhatthesepeopledo,supportsthishigherformofself-esteem.

Theseformsofself-esteemshouldnotbeconfusedwithanindividualhavinghighorlowself-esteem.Individualswithlowself-esteemoftenhavealowopinionofthemselvesandtheirself-image.Asaresult,inferioritycomplexesarepresentintheindividual.Withthisideainmind,Maslowcontendsthatthemajorityofpeople’spsychologicalproblemsareduetolowself-esteem.Therealismhereisthatifapersondon’tlikehimselforherself,orwhoheorsheisorwhatheorshehasaccomplished,thenthatpersonwillbemorecriticalofhimselforherself.Throughthatprocess,negativeselftalkisborn,andcancreateabarriertoachievingpersonalsuccess.
