Which criticism of Maslow's hierarchy is most appropriate?
Options
A. Human needs never influence behaviour
B. The strict sequential progression of needs is not universally supported by empirical evidence
C. Physiological needs do not exist
D. Self-actualisation has no relevance to motivation
Explanation
Individuals may pursue higher-order needs even when lower-order needs are not completely satisfied. The hierarchy is therefore better viewed as a conceptual framework rather than a rigid universal sequence.
