 * Argument: Once we as humans secure our own needs we should begin to help others secure theirs.**

‍‍ This is Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs Pyramid. It has quite the logical appeal as it is easy for people to agree with and it simply makes sense. But it was not designed to appeal to the public’s emotional side. As this clearly shows, humans need to fulfill their basic needs before they can even think about helping others. Helping others would be a need in the psychological section, because helping others can give one a feeling of accomplishment or possibly create a close relationship or even friendship. And people that have met these needs should be able to help another person easily, even people somewhere in the middle can offer help without hurting themselves. As long as a person’s basic needs are met they should find some way to help others who do not have those basic needs met. Maslow designed the pyramid to explain human beings’ needs in society. And he was successful; this theory that arose when people were just starting to grasp the ideas of psychology and is still accepted today. ‍Maslow is very credible as he is a famous psychologist and is very well respected for his work in the field of psychology. ‍

This video compares the movie Up to Maslow’s hierarchy of needs pyramid. It shows multiple examples of his needs being portrayed in society. This backs up my argument in that it helps validate Maslow’s pyramid and can give real life examples to those who doubt Maslow’s theory. The author created this video simply to show some real world examples of Maslow’s needs. The influence that made the author want to create this is that he/she saw some good examples of Maslow’s needs in the movie and wanted to show them. This author has about no credibility since it is just an unknown YouTube poster. But it does have a little bit of pathos in that in the movie Up, there are some quite emotional scenes and people seeing comparisons of Maslow’s theory and this movie could bring back some of those goof emotions. The logos is simply using a well-respected sociological theory to point out examples in this movie.
