Explore Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, a theory of motivation that emphasizes self-awareness, self-acceptance, and personal growth in healthy individuals. Unlike Freud, who focused on pathology, Maslow studied productive people striving for achievement. He proposed that a growth-promoting environment requires genuineness, unconditional positive regard, and empathy. This humanistic perspective believes in the inherent goodness of people and stresses the importance of congruence between self-perception and external perception, as exemplified in relationships and therapy (Carl Rogers).
