Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Schaller and colleagues suggest that finding a significant other and raising healthy children should be considered a more important motive than self-actualization. This would entail altering or adjusting Maslow's hierarchy rather than discarding it entirely or eliminating self-actualization. While they do not argue for self-actualization to be considered a universal motive, they do suggest that basic social and cultural factors should be taken into account when examining human motivation.
