The Five Levels of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs




Maslow’s hierarchy of needs never been display other than in a pyramid. The lowest levels of the pyramid are the most basic needs, while the more complex needs are located at the top of the pyramid.


Types of Needs

I also believed that these needs are similar to instincts and play a major role in motivating behavior. Physiological, security, social, and esteem needs are deficiency needs (also known as D-needs), meaning that these needs arise due to deprivation. Satisfying these lower-level needs is important in order to avoid unpleasant feelings or consequences.

Growth needs do not stem from a lack of something, but rather from a desire to grow as a person.

Five Levels of the Hierarchy of Needs:

1.Physiological Needs

These include the most basic needs that are vital to survival, such as the need for water, air, food and sleep. these needs are the most basic and instinctive needs in the hierarchy because all needs become secondary until these physiological needs are met.


2.Security Needs

These include needs for safety and security. Security needs are important for survival, examples of security needs include a desire for steady employment, health insurance, safe neighborhoods and shelter from the environment.


3.Social Needs

These include needs for belonging, love and affection. Relationships such as friendships, romantic attachments and families help fulfill this need for companionship and acceptance, as does involvement in social, community or religious groups.


4.Esteem Needs

After the first three needs have been satisfied, esteem needs becomes increasingly important. These include the need for things that reflect on self-esteem, personal worth, social recognition and accomplishment.
