The answer is true. When it came to the monkeys’ choice
between water and food. The water would always be selected as the priority over
food. As the interpretations continued, a pattern emerged. Maslow could see, on
a physiological level, that if the monkeys didn’t have food, but had water, the
group was less aggressive than those that had the water taken away from them. The
same seized true with safety needs. If all of the physiological needs were satisfied,
then the monkeys’ behavior became deeper when it came to creating social roles
and dominance.
