Maslow's Theory of Needs by Vaughn Aubuchon

The chart below summarizes Maslow's "Theory of Needs". I illustrate the needs as an inverse pyramid of need importance. One cannot progress to the "higher needs" until one has fulfilled the more "basic needs". .

. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs
	The needs must be satisfied in numerical order. One cannot gradute from a lower number, to a higher number, until satisfying the lower number, more basic need.
1	Physiological needs - Breathing, Thirst, Hunger, Sleep, Sex
2	Security need - Physical Safety - freedom from attack
3	Social need - Interaction with People - belonging, affection, love
4	Psychological Safety Need - Self-esteem, reputation, status
a.	Cognitive Needs - Need to know and Understand (added later)
b.	Aesthetic Need - The need for Order and Symmetry (added later)
5	Fulfillment and Self-Actualization Need
