ABRAHAM MASLOW’S HIERARCHY OF NEEDS

LION KING STORY

ACTIVITY Questionnaire 

CRITICISMS ON THE THEORY  The theory assumes that all people experience these needs in the same order, failing to recognize cultural and individual differences. In collectivist societies, for example, social needs may be considered more important than physiological needs.  Maslow’s description of self -actualization and how self-actualized people felt and behaved, was based on writing and talking to selectively chosen people rather than rigorous sampling.  Maslow restricted the number of self-actualized people in his theory. At one time, he wrote that less than two percent of the total population is made of self-actualizes.
