Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs
The hierarchy of needs is a psychological concept that was proposed by Abraham Maslow. Maslow wrote about the hierarchy of needs in his 1943 paper "A Theory of Human Motivation" in Psychological Review. Maslow’s hierarchy of needs is related to motivational theory and how humans achieve self-actualization. The hierarchy is composed of five levels from bottom to top in a pyramid-shape with innate drives and needs for physiological, safety and security, belongingness, esteem, and self-actualization. His hierarchy of needs states that the lower levels are the basic needs must be satisfied before going to the next level and so on.
