Abraham Maslow

(1908-1970) Abraham Maslow was an American psychologist known for developing the theory of the hierarchy of human needs, a model that describes human behavioral motivations in the form of a pyramid. In his theory, Maslow proposed that basic needs, such as food and security, must be satisfied before people can focus on higher needs such as esteem and self-actualization. His work had a significant impact on the field of humanistic psychology, highlighting the importance of human potential and personal growth.
