心理学研究表明,人的思想和行为是由需要引起的。人的需要是人的本性,是思想和行为产生的根源。因此,思想工作者应注意了解人的需要,并尽可能予以满足,这样才能使工作收到实效。因为人的需要不可能无限制地得到满足,它的满足程度要受社会物质生活条件和集体利益等的制约,所以,需要必须引导。思想工作的过程,是不断引导和满足需要的过程。 Psychological research shows that people’s thinking and behavior are caused by needs. Human needs are human nature and are the source of thought and behavior. Therefore, ideological workers should pay attention to understanding human needs and satisfy them as much as possible so as to make the work more effective. Because man’s needs can not be met indefinitely, its degree of satisfaction is restricted by the material and social conditions of the society and collective interests, and so it needs to be guided. The process of ideological work is the process of constantly guiding and meeting needs.
