When a person's physiological demands are met, their wants for security and safety start to stand out. People desire a sense of control, predictability, and order in their life. The family and society can meet these needs (e.g., police, schools, business, and medical care).
The third level of human needs: social, which comprises feelings of belongingness, comes after satisfying physiological and safety requirements. A human being's emotional need for interpersonal connections, affiliation, connectedness, and group membership relates to a sense of belongingness.
Maslow classified esteem needs into two categories: (i) esteem for oneself (dignity, achievement, mastery, independence) and (ii) the desire for reputation or respect from others (e.g., status, prestige).
