QUESTIONS TO SHARPEN YOUR FOCUS
1. Maslow's humanistic approach was a reaction against Freudian and behav ioristic psychology. How does the "Third Force" differ from these other two approaches?
2. Given that safety needs are lower in the hierarchy than needs for love and
esteem, how is it possible that people might willingly die for their country?
3. What has been the single most joyous, happy, or blissful moment of your life? Does that peak experience square with Maslow' s description of self-actual ization as an unselfish state?
4. Is there any place for delayed gratification within Maslow's theory of motivation?
