Unit 7 – Motivation, Emotion, and Personality
Topic 7.8
What similarities exist between Abraham Maslow's theory of self-actualization and Eastern philosophies like Taoism?
Both emphasize achieving a higher state of being and realizing one's full potential.
Unlike Maslow, Eastern philosophies suggest that self-actualization can be achieved regardless of basic needs.
Self-actualization contradicts the principles of Eastern philosophies.
Taoism is based on fulfilling physiological needs, unlike Maslow's theory.
