Fernando Figueroa · Answer 1

The correct answer is A) Abraham Maslow and Carl Rogers

Explanation:

Both Abraham Maslow and Carl Rogers are credited with starting the humanistic school of psychology. This approach to psychology is based on the belief that humans have agency, and strive in life for self-actualization and personal fulfillment. This approach is opposed to the Freudian approach (also known as psychoanalysis) because it is less deterministic.

Abraham Maslow is famous for his hierarchy of needs, with survival needs such as food and water at the bottom of the pyramid, and self-actualization at the top. And Carl Rogers is well-known because of his theories on personality and self-actualization as well.
