How many levels of human needs are there, and what are the seven levels of human needs?

Maslow's theory of the five hierarchy of needs.

Physiological needs, the most basic food and clothing, etc.;

The need for safety, a relatively safe living environment;

Social needs, people are social animals, communication is also an instinct;

Respect for needs, self-esteem, human dignity;

Self-realization, the embodiment of self-worth.

The hierarchy of needs is arranged in a pyramid pattern, from one to five is the order of human needs from basic to advanced.

Extended information: Physiological needs, which are the most basic requirements for human beings to maintain their own survival, including hunger, thirst, clothing, shelter, and sexual requirements. If these needs are not met, the survival of humanity becomes a problem.

When this need is relatively satisfied, it ceases to be a motivator. Maslow argues that only when these most basic needs are met to the extent necessary for survival can other needs become new motivators;

The need for safety is the need for human beings to ensure their own safety, to get rid of the threat of career and loss of property, to avoid the invasion of occupational diseases, and to be exposed to harsh supervision. When this need is relatively satisfied, it ceases to be a motivator. Maslow believed that the whole organism is a mechanism for the pursuit of security, and that human receptors, effector organs, intelligence, and other energies are mainly tools for seeking security, and that science and outlook on life can even be seen as part of satisfying security needs;

Emotional needs, emotional needs are related to a person's physical characteristics, experience, education, and religious beliefs. This level of need has two aspects: the need for fraternity, i.e. the need for good relations between partners and colleagues, or friendship and loyalty;Everyone wants to be loved, they want to love others, and they want to receive love from others.

The need to belong, that is, people have a feeling of belonging to a group, a desire to be a member of the group, and to care for and care for each other;

The need for respect, the desire for a stable social status for everyone, and the recognition of individual abilities and achievements by society. The need for respect can be further divided into: Internal respect refers to a person's desire to be competent, competent, confident, and independent in a variety of situations.

In short, internal respect is the self-esteem of a person. External respect refers to a person's desire to have status, prestige, and to be respected, trusted, and highly valued by others. Maslow believed that the need for respect to be met enables people to have confidence in themselves, to be passionate about society, and to experience the usefulness and value of their lives

The need for self-realization, which is the highest level of need, refers to the need to realize one's ideals and ambitions, to give full play to one's abilities to the greatest extent, and to accomplish everything commensurate with one's abilities. That is, people must do a good job in order to make them feel the greatest happiness. Maslow believed that the path taken to meet the need for self-actualization varies from person to person.

The need for self-actualization is to strive to realize one's potential and to become more and more the person you want to be.

1. Physiological needs.

Physiological needs are the most primitive and basic needs of people, such as food, clothing, housing, medical care, and so on. If not, it is life-threatening. That is to say, it is the strongest unavoidable need at the bottom, and it is also a powerful motivator for people to act.

When a person is controlled by physiological needs, all other needs take a back seat.

2. Security requirements.

The need for safety requires occupational safety, occupational safety, life stability, a desire to be free from disasters, and a desire for a secure future. Security required.

It is a higher level than physiological needs, and when physiological needs are met, they must be guaranteed. Everyone who lives in reality has a sense of security.

The desire for freedom, the desire for defensive strength.

3. Social needs.

Social needs. This includes friendship, love, and affiliation.

of needs. When physical and security needs are met, social needs come to the fore and create motivation. In Maslow.

This level is a very different level from the first two levels. If these needs are not met, they can affect the morale of personnel, leading to high absenteeism, low productivity, job dissatisfaction and low mood.

4. Respect needs.

The need for respect can be divided into three categories: self-esteem, self-esteem, and desire for power, including self-esteem, self-evaluation, and respect for others. The need for respect is seldom fully satisfied, but basic satisfaction can generate momentum.

5. Cognitive needs.

Also known as the need for cognition and understanding, it refers to the individual's need to explore, understand, and solve difficult problems in themselves and the world around them. Maslow saw it as a tool to overcome obstacles, and when cognitive needs are frustrated, the ability of other needs to be met is also threatened.

6. Aesthetic needs.

Aesthetic needs refer to people's physical, psychological, and spiritual needs and desires for beauty. It is a manifestation of human life needs, the essential characteristics of human beings' unique free and conscious life activities, and the internal mechanism of human survival and development. People's need for beauty is also a basic need, such as the hope for the perfection of action, the appreciation of the symmetry, order, closure and other forms of beauty, and the need for the structure and regularity of beauty, etc., are all expressions of aesthetic needs.

7. Self-realization.

The need for self-actualization is the highest level of need, a need for creation. People who need self-realization often do their best to make themselves perfect, realize their ideals and goals, and gain a sense of accomplishment. Maslow believed that in the process of self-realization and creation, a so-called "peak experience" emotion is generated, when people are in the highest, most perfect, and most harmonious state, with a feeling of ecstasy and drunkenness.

1. The first level: physiological needs: If any of these needs (except sexuality) are not satisfied, the physiology of the human individual cannot function normally.

In other words, human life is threatened. In this sense, physiological needs are the primary motivation for people's actions.

2. The second level: the need for security: the whole organism is a mechanism for the pursuit of safety, and the human receptors, effector organs, intelligence and other energies are mainly tools for seeking safety, and even science and outlook on life can be regarded as part of meeting the needs of security.

Of course, once this need is relatively satisfied, it no longer becomes a motivating factor.

3. The third level: the need for emotion and belonging: everyone wants to be connected and cared for by each other. Emotional needs are more nuanced than physical needs, and they are related to a person's physical characteristics, experiences, education, and religious beliefs.

4. The fourth level: the need for respect: everyone wants to have a stable social status, and requires that personal abilities and achievements be recognized by the society.

The need for respect can be further divided into internal respect and external respect. Internal respect refers to a person's desire to be competent, competent, confident, and independent in a variety of situations. In short, internal respect is the self-esteem of a person.

External respect refers to a person's desire to have status, prestige, and to be respected, trusted, and highly valued by others.

5. The fifth level: the need for self-realization: the need for self-realization is the highest level of need, which refers to the realization of personal ideals and ambitions, the need to give full play to personal ability to the greatest extent, to achieve the realm of self-realization, to accept themselves and others, to enhance the ability to solve problems, to improve consciousness, to be good at dealing with things independently, to be alone without interruption, and to complete everything commensurate with their own ability.
