Arrange the following needs of Maslow's need hierarchy theory in reverse chronological order. (A) Security needs (B) Esteem needs (C) Self actualisation needs (D) Affiliation needs Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

(C), (B), (A), (D)

(A), (B), (C), (D)

(B), (A), (D), (C)

(C), (B), (D), (A)

✅ Correct Option: 4

Option 1 -> (C), (B), (A), (D) - This places Security needs before Affiliation needs, which is incorrect in reverse order. Option 2 -> (A), (B), (C), (D) - This represents an ascending order starting from Security needs, not the reverse chronological order required. Option 3 -> (B), (A), (D), (C) - This starts with Esteem needs instead of Self-actualization, which is incorrect for reverse order. Option 4 -> (C), (B), (D), (A) - This correctly arranges from Self-actualization → Esteem → Affiliation → Security, which is the proper reverse chronological order. Hence, Option 4: (C), (B), (D), (A) -> Maslow's hierarchy in normal order is: Security → Affiliation → Esteem → Self-actualization. In reverse chronological order (top to bottom), it becomes: Self-actualization (C) → Esteem (B) → Affiliation (D) → Security (A) -> correct
