An elderly client who enjoyed watercolor painting when young has recently indicated a desire to
begin painting again. According to Maslow's theories on human needs, what is the best reason
the client will express an interest in painting again?​

Respuesta :

Answer:

Self-actualization needs

Explanation:

According to Maslow's theory on human needs, there are five human needs that need to be accomplished in order for an individual to feel motivated and satisfied and, as one level of needs is achieved, the person will move to the next one to reach the highest level of achievement, which refers to the self-actualization level.

The five human needs, according to Maslow, are:

  • Physiological
  • Safety
  • Love and belonging
  • Esteem
  • Self-actualization

In this scenario, the elderly person has always enjoyed painting, so he/she probably has a motivation or desire to retake painting in order to improve and, as Marlow stated, to "become everything she is capable of becoming," that is, to exploit his/her capabilities, which refers to the fifth level of human needs: self-actualization.
