The Humanists Revolt
- attacked psychoanalysis for its belief that behaviour is dominated
by primitive sexual urges & behaviourism for its study of simple
animal behaviour; BOTH suggested people are not in control of
their own destinies & did not recognize human behaviour
- Humanism: emphasizes the unique qualities
of humans, especially their freedom and their
potential for personal growth
- people are not pawns of their animal heritage
or environmental circumstances, AND research
on animals has little relevance to human
behaviour
- Greatest contribution --> innovative
treatments for psychological
problems & disorders

- Carl Rogers (1902-87) and Abraham Maslow (1908-70)
- Rogers (1951): human
behaviour is primarily governed
by our sense of self or
'self-concept' (which animals
lack)
- Rogers and Maslow (1954): 'to fully
understand our behaviour, psychologists
must understand our drive toward
personal growth'
- we have a basic need to evolve as
human beings and fulfill our potential
- Rogers (1951): human
behaviour is primarily governed
by our sense of self or
'self-concept' (which animals
lack)
