CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Self-actualization is the final stage in the linear growth of an individual. Maslow believed that in order to achieve this state of personal fulfilment, the person must first satisfy the preceding needs (i.e. physiological, safety, love/belonging, and esteem, in that order).

Detailed explanation-2: -Self-actualization is the realization of a person’s full potential. It is found at the peak of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and is considered the exception rather than the rule since most people are working to meet more pressing needs.

Detailed explanation-3: -While Maslow believed achieving self-actualization is somewhat rare and posited that only about 1% of the adult population has self-actualized, current research shows this number may be higher. Further, self-actualization has not been found to correlate with age, gender, income level, or race.

Detailed explanation-4: -According to Maslow, self-actualization is the highest level of human need. It’s the point at which a person fully realizes their potential and lives following their innermost desires. Achieving self-actualization can bring many benefits, including happiness, peace of mind, and satisfaction.
