Maslows hierarchy of needs

According to mplypsychology.org "Maslows hierarchy of needs is a motivational theory in psychology comprising a five tier model of human needs, often depicted as hierarchical levels within a pyramid".







the bottom level/ tier 5 - physiological needs

these are the core things humans need to survive which includes bread water, breathing etc

tier 4 - safety needs  

these cover things humans need for protection from the environment and other things such as predators and in some cases other humans 

tier 3 -  love/belonging needs

as the table progresses the need become more psychological rather than physical, tier 3 is about belonging to a group e.g. a family or a friendship group or loving a partner 

tier 2 - esteem needs 

these needs relate to how a person is treated which could boost their self esteem or could boost their confidence if they have been treated right by those around them 

tier 1 - self Actualization 

this need i based off the need to have self esteem and produce confidence without input from anyone else
