Does Maslow’s research reveal to us that in order to achieve our full potential we need to be an interdisciplinary person and thinker? Does Maslow’s research reveal to us that the key to self-actualization is interdisciplinarity? Keep these two questions in mind as you proceed with unit eight. This paper serves as your final assignment in the Interdisciplinary Inquiry course. Up until this point, you have been learning about academic disciplines and interdisciplinarity. This paper takes things to the next step. Here you will be able to explore interdisciplinary inquiry in the context of your own life experiences.

Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs: An Islamic Critique

The model of the hierarchy of needs by Abraham Maslow is pervasive according to existing studies. This article offers an in-depth description of the hierarchy and identifies current criticisms. The article author puts more concentration on missing emphasis on the spiritual aspect of human existence in Maslow’s model. The research also explores reasons as to why the model needs to be commoditized. The model needs to be divorced from its substance and used merely as a commodity (Bouzenita & Boulanouar, 2016).  It also criticizes the later changes made by Maslow on his model. The article also explains how the model can be used in marketing. It describes how the model is diversely received in the Muslim academic circles.

Adapting Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs

In this research, the author is using Maslow’s hierarchy of needs to explain the wellness initiatives among the people. In medical education for graduates, burnout harms the career of an individual and their wellbeing. This article uses the hierarchy to solve the issues caused by exhaustion. There are several causes of burnouts in medical students and healthcare providers; hence initiatives to combat this must be multifaceted (Hale et al., 2019). Maslow’s needs can be used in developing a framework in medical education to help solve the burnout. The article authors refer to the existing studies to support their model.
