Study Notes
Humanistic Theory
- Focuses on healthy people's strive for self-determination, contrasting with Freud's study of sick people's motives
- Abraham Maslow and Carl Rogers are key figures in humanistic psychology
Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs
- Basic Needs: physiological needs, safety needs, love and belongingness needs, esteem needs, and self-actualization needs
- Physiological Needs: basic necessities like food, water, and shelter
- Safety Needs: needs for security, order, and stability
- Love and Belongingness Needs: needs for affiliation, friendship, and intimate relationships
- Esteem Needs: needs for respect, self-esteem, and recognition
- Self-Actualization Needs: realizing one's full potential and pursuing personal growth
Carl Rogers' Person-Centered Approach
- Humans are basically good and have self-actualizing tendencies
- Psychological distress arises from a mismatch between self-concept and ideal self
- A growth-promoting climate requires genuineness, acceptance, and empathy
- Genuine: open with own feelings, transparent, and self-disclosing
- Accepting: unconditional positive regard, valuing others despite their flaws
- Empathic: sharing and mirroring feelings, reflecting meanings
- Unconditional positive regard involves accepting the person as they are, without conditions
