hierarchy of needs
The hierarchy of needs is a theory developed by Abraham Maslow that categorizes human needs into a hierarchical structure, with physiological needs as the foundation and self-actualization as the pinnacle. Each level must be satisfied before progressing to the next, as individuals strive to fulfill their basic survival requirements, social interactions, esteem, and eventually their full potential.
