Alderfers ERG theory demonstrates that more than one need maymotivate at the same time.

A lower motivator need not be substantially satisfied before one

can move onto higher motivators.

The ERG theory acknowledges that if a higher level need remainsunfulfilled, the person may regress to lower level needs that appear

easier to satisfy. This is known as the frustration-regressionprinciple.
