Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: In the context of the needs-hierarchy theory, the following conditions are necessary in order for us to satisfy the self-actualization need: we must be free of constraints imposed by society and by ourselves; we must be secure in our self-image and in our relationships with other people; and we must be able to love and be loved in return; we must have a realistic knowledge of our strengths and weaknesses, virtues and vices; and we must not be distracted by the lower-order needs. The highest need in Maslow's hierarchy, self-actualization, involves the maximum realization and fulfillment of our potentials, talents, and abilities.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: Although a person may satisfy all the other needs in the hierarchy, if that person is not self-actualizing, he or she will be restless, frustrated, and discontent. The highest need in Maslow's hierarchy, self-actualization, involves the maximum realization and fulfillment of our potentials, talents, and abilities.
