Growth and Preservation-Oriented Communication Behaviour

Year: 1985

Type: article

Abstract: Maslow's humanistic theory of self-actualization (1954) is a cognitively-based theory which states that we are purposively attempting to reach our maximum levels of achievement, i.e., be the best that we can be. The question arises as to how one goes about reaching one's greatest potential of self-actualization through communication behaviour.
