Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Maslow's hierarchy of needs includes deficiency needs, such as physiological needs (i.e. food, water, shelter) and safety needs. If these basic needs are not met, it can be difficult for an individual to focus on higher level needs, such as academic success. Aesthetic, growth, and self-actualization needs are higher level needs that may be affected by deficiency needs, but are not directly related to academic success in the same way.
