Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Revisited.
Frame, Douglas
Interchange, v27 n1 p13-22 Jan 1996
Reviews Maslow's hierarchy of needs and characterization of the self-actualizing personality, suggesting that since few people meet his self-actualization criteria, an educational system designed to produce such personalities may fail, with teachers attending only to the hierarchy's lower stages (self-esteem and self-actualization) which dilutes the cognitive content of learning.
