Abstract : The objective of this study is to measure and compare the rank orders of the degree of perceived deficiency in need fulfillment among 174 individuals from Saudi Arabia and other nationalities (Asians, Westerners, and Arabs) attached to 5 categories of needs: security, social, self-esteem, autonomy, and self-actualization. Porter’s Need Satisfaction Questionnaire was used to measure the degree of need fulfillment deficiency of the four groups: Saudis, Asians, Westerners and Arabs. The results indicate that the total sample ranked the need for autonomy as the most deficient ,which was followed by self-actualization , and then by the need for security. Further, self-esteem was rated as the fourth in deficiency, and the social need was regarded?as the least deficient. Additionally, the results indicate that there were differences in the rank orders of the degree of perceived deficiencies in need fulfillment among the four groups, as well as between managers and non-managers. The findings of this study were compared with those of related studies. Possible explanations for the findings are discussed in light of previous research followed by recommendations and directions for future research in the areas of motivation and comparative management.
