Fascinating results of an experiment (n=500) with Mechanical Turk workers.

‘Taken together, this total pattern of data supports Maslow’s contention that self-actualised individuals are more motivated by growth and exploration than by fulfilling deficiencies in basic needs,’ Kaufman writes. He adds that the new empirical support for Maslow’s ideas is ‘quite remarkable’ given that Maslow put them together with ‘a paucity of actual evidence’.

Maslow always contended that it is only through becoming our true, authentic selves that we can transcend the self and look outward with compassion to the rest of humanity. Kaufman explored this too, and found that higher scorers on his self-actualisation scale tended also to score higher on feelings of oneness with the world, but not on decreased self-salience, a sense of independence and bias toward information relevant to oneself. (These are the two main factors in a modern measure of self-transcendence developed by the psychologist David Yaden at the University of Pennsylvania.)

Kaufman said that this last finding supports ‘Maslow’s contention that self-actualising individuals are able to paradoxically merge with a common humanity while at the same time able to maintain a strong identity and sense of self’.

The effects of not using Facebook for a month:

• on average another 60 free mins per day
• small but significant improvement in well-being, and in particular in self-reported happiness, life satisfaction, depression and anxiety
• participants were less willing to use Facebook from now
• the group was less likely to follow politics
• deactivation significantly reduced polarization of views on policy issues and a measure of exposure to polarizing news
• 80% agreed that the deactivation was good for them
