Imagine a neighborhood in which a hurricane has caused extensive flooding. many of the residents have had their homes damaged or destroyed. at the time, however, the material loss is unimportant as the residents think only of escaping the flood. maslow would say this is because the residents' needs are threatened.

The residents' safety and security needs are threatened.

Explanation:

Abraham Maslow was an American psychologist who developed various theories under the humanist approach, including the theory of the hierarchy of human needs; This theory postulates that human beings hierarchize their needs from the most basic (food, respiration, rest ...), to more complex needs such as self-realization (morality, creativity ...).

In this example the residents do not have the second level of the hierarchy; security, that is why they do not give importance to the material things they are losing.

The five levels are physiological needs, safety, affiliation, self-recognition, and self-realization.
