Document Summary
Characteristics of fully functioning people - (not a comprehensive list) Consistent state of change/growth - always willing to be learning and "expand horizon" Harmonious relationships with others - tend to get along reasonably with others. Organismic trust (trusting one"s own perceptions and feelings) - how you are seeing the world is valid. Case study research support (opinion is valid) Possibly to simplistic - (all you need is enough love and support and you"ll be fine) Abraham maslow "more than just a pyramid" - theory is consistent with humanism & rogers. Holistic motivation - no "sorta", either you do or you don"t. Continuous motivation - when we complete motivation, we find something else to be motivated by. Hierarchy of needs: (3) self - actualization (s. a. ) (2) psychological needs (esteem, belongingness) (1) fundamental needs (safety, physiological) Physiological - food, water, shelter, air//satisfied for a while but will come back. Safety - stability; "i"m not going to die today"
