  1. Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs (often represented as a pyramid with five levels of needs) is a motivational theory in psychology that argues that while people aim to meet basic needs, they seek to meet successively higher needs in the form of a pyramid. Abraham H. Maslow felt as though conditioning theories did not adequately capture the complexity of human behavior. In a 1943 paper called A Theory of Human Motivation, Maslow presented the idea that human actions are directed toward goal attainment[1]. Any given behavior could satisfy several functions at the same time; for instance, going to a bar could satisfy one’s needs for self-esteem and for social interaction. Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs has often been represented in a hierarchical pyramid with five levels. The four levels (lower-order needs) are considered physiological needs, while the top level of the pyramid is considered growth needs. The lower level needs must be satisfied before higher-order needs can influence behavior. The levels are as follows (see pyramid in Figure 1 below).

Self-actualization – includes morality, creativity, problem solving, etc.

Esteem – includes confidence, self-esteem, achievement, respect, etc.

Belongingness – includes love, friendship, intimacy, family, etc.

Safety – includes security of environment, employment, resources, health, property, etc.

Physiological – includes air, food, water, sex, sleep, other factors towards homeostasis, etc.

Deprivation Needs

The first four levels are considered deficiency or deprivation needs (“D-needs”) in that their lack of satisfaction causes a deficiency that motivates people to meet these needs. Physiological needs, the lowest level on the hierarchy, include necessities such as air, food, and water. These tend to be satisfied for most people, but they become predominant when unmet. During emergencies, safety needs such as health and security rise to the forefront. Once these two levels are met, belongingness needs, such as obtaining love and intimate relationships or close friendships, become important. The next level, esteem needs, include the need for recognition from others, confidence, achievement, and self-esteem.

Growth Needs

The highest level is self-actualization, or the self-fulfillment. Behavior in this case is not driven or motivated by deficiencies but rather one’s desire for personal growth and the need to become all the things that a person is capable of becoming[2][3].

Criticisms

While a useful guide for generally understanding why students behave the way that they do and in determining how learning may be affected by physiological or safety deficiencies, Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs has its share of criticisms. Some critics have noted vagueness in what is considered a “deficiency”; what is a deficiency for one is not necessarily a deficiency for another. Secondly, there seem to be various exceptions that frequently occur. For example, some people often risk their own safety to rescue others from danger.

Answer:   U-boats were designed to make sure that messages being transported were secured.

Explanation: With the question and answer choices, it is a bit confusing at first. We see that, it’s talking about implications over explicit actualities, so we can remove the first and last choice about the message being important, while Zimmermann was looking for help. Both are explicitly stated in the excerpt, so it gives us a detailed account for why he was asking Mexico to assist Germany. It was not that stated that Mexico was expecting the message, and it was not hinted, since Germany is stated to only have gone through proper channels. They are trying to make sure they don't get caught, but one side is unaware of what is occurring. That leaves the U-boat choice, which seems like an accurate, implied statement from what is given. Nothing was suggested about the U-boat other than its level of transportation and method of delivery, but it is enough to infer. U-boats are stated to be for diplomatic channels and have to take certain routes, so the audience can think of its secrecy and security without being told.

What are 3 things you learned about the process or about yourself as a designer?
AleksandrR [38]

Well, I believe I could answer this question since I am a graphic designer. Just remember to rephrase this a bit please.

1. As a designer, I have learned that your work doesn't speak for itself, you do. You must show/tell people about your work and how you feel about it.

2. Remember your "Why?". When your at the point of almost giving up, think about the purpose of the project or design.

3. Ask for help. When you need it, always ask for help
