  6. Maslow’s Hierarchy of Human NeedsAbraham Harold Maslow “According to Maslow's theory, all needs have a certain priority. Needs of one level must at least partially fulfilled before a person can realize higher needs.” (Ryder/Decker, 391)

  7. What are Maslow’s Human Needs? Can you guess what Maslow’s levels of needs are? Self-actualization Esteem Needs Love and Acceptance Needs Safety and Security Needs Physical Needs

  8. Physical needs What did Maslow mean by physical needs? What physical needs does every person have? • Food • Water • Air • Shelter • Clothing These items are essential for good health and well-being, and for continuation of life.

  9. Physical needs • On a sheet of paper, consider these questions? Write your answers in complete sentences. • Are you meeting these needs for your well being and good health? • Who provides these needs for you? • Could you provide these needs for a baby?

  10. Safety and Security Needs • Staying well, avoiding being ill • Avoiding danger • Safe circumstances • Stability • Protection • Structure, for order, some limits How do these safety and security needs relate to you?

  11. Safety and Security Needs • In the ordinary American adult, this set of needs manifests itself in the form of urges to have a home in a safe neighborhood, a little job security and a nest egg, a good retirement plan and a bit of insurance, and so on. • Which of these are met for you? • Which of these needs could you provide for a baby?

  12. Love and Acceptance Needs • Friends, boyfriend / girlfriend relationships, children, affectionate relationships in general, even a sense of community What are some examples of love and acceptance you see in your life?

  13. The Esteem needs • Self-esteem • The need for the respect of others, the need for status, fame, glory, recognition, attention, reputation, appreciation, dignity, and even dominance.  • Self-respect • Confidence, competence, achievement, mastery, independence, and freedom

  14. Self-actualization • Reaching your highest potential • According to Maslow, only a small percentage of the world’s population is truly, predominantly, self-actualizing. 

  15. Self-actualization • Knowledge and appreciation of beauty, goodness, freedom and a realistic view and acceptance of self and others • Reality-centered, differentiate what is fake and dishonest from what is real and genuine. • Problem-centered, treating life’s difficulties as problems demanding solutions, not as personal troubles to be railed at or surrendered to.  • Different perception of means and ends, that the ends don’t necessarily justify the means, that the means could be ends themselves, and that the means -- the journey -- is often more important than the ends.

  16. Create an info graphic poster in which you illustrate each level of needs from Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs.
