Maslow's hierarchy of needs is a theory in psychology that categorizes human needs into five levels, with social needs being one of them. These needs include affection, acceptance, friendship, and a sense of belonging. According to Maslow, fulfilling these social needs is essential for individuals to move on to higher levels of the hierarchy, such as esteem and self-actualization.

Wait, is Bigelow's theory even a real thing? I can't recall what that one was about.

I feel like I've seen a question like this before, and it was definitely about Maslow's theory.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about the Three-factor hierarchy being related to social needs too.

I think this might relate to Maslow's hierarchy of needs since it talks about belonging and affection.
