In relation to Maslow's hierarchy of needs, the need for self-esteem, accomplishment, fun, freedom, and relaxation are attributed to which of the following needs?
A. Physiological
B. Safety
C. Self-actualization
D. Love and belongingness
E. Esteem, love and belongingness
Answer: (E) When striving to satisfy basic human needs such as accomplishment, fun, relaxation, and others as stated in the other answers, individuals would find themselves in both the self-esteem needs level and the love and belongingness needs level of the hierarchy. Physiological needs (A) are needs for food, drink, rest, and sex. Safety needs (B) are needs for protection or wellbeing. Self-actualization (C) is also incorrect. This needs level refers to people who strive for total fulfillment of their maximum capabilities, and is only reached by a small portion of the population. Love and belongingness (D) is a good answer; however, it is not the best choice.
