Maslow's Humanistic Theory of Personality

Maslow's hierarchy of needs

Maslow's hierarchy of needs

Abraham Maslow developed a human hierarchy of needs that is conceptualized as a pyramid to represent how people move from one level of needs to another. First physiological needs must be met before safety needs, then the need for love and belonging, then esteem, and finally self-actualization.
