Proposed by Abraham Maslow in 'A Theory of Human Motivation' in 1943, was Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. Maslow later included his observations of humans' innate curiosity. Maslow's hierarchy of needs is a theory in psychology. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is about the responsibility of employers to provide a workplace environment that encourages and enables employees to fulfil their own unique potential or self-actualization. Abraham Maslow studied Albert Einstein, Jane Addams, Eleanor Roosevelt, and Frederick Douglass rather than mentally ill or neurotic people. According to Maslow "the study of crippled, stunted, immature, and unhealthy specimens can yield only a cripple psychology and a cripple philosophy."
Abraham Maslow's book Motivation and Personality. introduced the Hierarchy of Needs, and Maslow extended his ideas in his later other books, particularly 'Toward A Psychology Of Being.' Empirical work should seek to examine Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs in relation to other aspects of religion.
Maslow's hierarchy of needs used to measure motivation for religious behavior. Kenneth Brown and Chris Cullen. Abstract: In order to test Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs in relation to religion, the present study describes the development and initial psychometric validation work on the “Motivation for Religious Behaviour Questionnaire”. Scores on the “Motivation for Religious Behaviour Questionnaire” were correlated with scores on a measure of Maslow's Hierarchy of needs. Contrary to expectations, no significant association was found between the measures.
The IT Value Hierarchy: Using Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs as a Metaphor for Gauging the Maturity Level of Information Technology Use within Competitive Organizations - Robert Urwiler, Mark N. Frolick. Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to present a hierarchy of progressive IT maturity using Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs as a metaphor for articulating the increasing value that can be derived by the application of Information Technology within competitive organizations. The authors refer to this maturity model as the IT Value Hierarchy. Each level of the IT Value Hierarchy is described using examples and comparisons to Maslow's Hierarchy.
Treatment approach to child abuse and delinquency (from child abuse and neglect - issues on innovation and implementation - v 2, 1978, by Michael L Lauderdale, et al, Y Walker.
Maslow's hierarchy of needs is proposed as a useful framework for diagnosis and treatment planning in cases of child abuse and juvenile delinquency.
This Maslow's hierarchy of needs includes self-actualization, identity, mastery, affiliation and love, safety and homeostasis, and survival. Both the cyclical nature of child abuse and juvenile delinquency and maslow's hierarchy of needs should be considered in treatment planning for families. Treatment includes assessing each person in the family in terms of where that person is in the maslow's hierarchy of needs; assess the family as a whole in terms of the successful accomplishments of each individual member and developing short-range and long-range goals that allow for the sequential mastery of the maslow's hierarchy of needs for each family member.

Exploring the relationship between money attitudes and Maslow's hierarchy of needs
- Mark Oleson.
Abstract: This study explores the relationship between basic human needs and
money attitudes in a university-age cohort utilizing Maslow's theory of
hierarchical needs. Results confirmed relationships between needs and money
attitudes. Specifically, all of Maslow's needs appear to be strongly related to
the money attitudes of evaluation and anxiety. In addition, men's and women's
needs are highly correlated with obsession, budget, anxiety and particularly
evaluation.
