The Work Motivation Inventory (WMI), a measure of Maslow's hierarchy of needs, and the Edwards Personal Preference Schedule (EPPS), a measure of Murray's manifest needs, were administered to 372 undergraduates. The two instruments were compared using canonical analysis. The analysis revealed three significant relationships between components of the two instruments. The first relationship supported Maslow's need hierarchy in general and its measurement by the WMI. The second suggested a fluctuating relationship between giving and receiving help and the levels of Maslow's hierarchy. The third relationship suggested that need for Achievement is associated with the intermediate levels of Maslow's hierarchy.
工作动机量表（WMI），一种衡量马斯洛需求层次理论的工具，以及爱德华个人偏好量表（EPPS），一种衡量默里明显需求的工具，被施用于372名本科生。使用典型相关分析对这两种工具进行了比较。分析揭示了这两种工具各组成部分之间的三个显著关系。第一个关系总体上支持马斯洛的需求层次理论及其通过WMI进行的测量。第二个关系表明给予和接受帮助与马斯洛层次理论各水平之间存在波动关系。第三个关系表明成就需求与马斯洛层次理论的中间水平相关。
