Q Please post your thoughts regarding why you have decided to attend college based on Maslow’s hierarchy. Be sure to include your thoughts regarding which level(s) of needs are met by attending college.
Among the many theories of human motivation and needs, one of the most known and cited is Maslow’s hierarchy of needs theory. This five model theory is constructed in a hierarchical manner with the physiological needs forming the most important needs. Then comes the safety and security needs, followed by intimacy needs, achievement needs and lastly self-actualization needs. As one need is met the individual moves on to the next need. However, it is not necessary for a need to be met 100% for the next need to arise.
