According to Maslow, it is not possible to meet the needs at upper levels without satisfying the ones at a lower level. Which of the following examples is an exeption according to Maslow's theory?


a homeless man who cannot finance a permanent home is not expected to seek for a romantic relationship

a person who has been hungry for some time is not expected to spend the first money he receives on books 

a joung architecht who just starts a new job aims to meet his physiological needs first and then guarantee his position in the company 

a father makes sure that the need for safety for family and his job are met before he can focus on his social needs, such as taking time for clubs or friends

a family who is happy to be together but have difficulties in meeting their first level physiological needs due to financial problems


Yanıt Açıklaması:

Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs is criticized because of some exceptions observed in practical terms. To illustrate with, although some families have difficulties in meeting their first level physiological needs due to financial problems, they might satisfy their “being together” need, which is a need at a higher level. In other words, despite financial problems, a family may succeed in being together. In addition, a person brought up in a family giving importance to education may spend his money on books rather than on food even if he is hungry.
