here is a diagram of maslow's hierarchy of needs, this shows us that his theory does affect everyone in a different way, his work is based on psychology work, his work shows us how the human mind is motivated, and how our minds can create innate curiosity. he focused mainly on describing the stages of growth in humans, the main categories he used for his theory are physiological, safety, love/belonging, esteem, self-actualization, these were the categories he needed to describe the pattern that humans motivations generally move through.
how we can relate this to the work we are studying on our magazines, is that we can now tell what urges the audience to buy something they might not need, the motivation in there mind is making them buy something, this could be of many reasons why they are buying the magazine, for eg, jealousy of someone else, saw it in advert, saw certain things that stand out to them, etc.
