Document Summary

Textbook: psychology tenth edition in modules authored by david g. myers. Self-transcendence needs need to find meaning and identity beyond the self. Self-actualization needs need to live up to our fullest and unique potential. Esteem needs need for self-esteem, achievement, competence, and independence; need for recognition and respect from others. Belongingness and love needs need to love and be loved, to belong and be accepted; need to avoid loneliness and separation. Safety needs need to feel that the world is organized and predictable; need to feel safe. Physiological needs need to satisfy hunger and thirst. Motivation: a need or desire that energizes and directs behaviour. Instinct: a complex behaviour that is rigidly patterned throughout a species and is unlearned. Drive-reduction theory: the idea that a physiological need creates an aroused tension state (a drive) that motivates an organism to satisfy the need.
